Match of Pratt and Lambert™ WH08 Palladian *

Yes, but the surface condition matters. If you are using a match of WH08 Palladian on metal or over an existing coating, clean off oil, dust, and contamination first, then remove rust or loose paint. Glossy or slick coatings usually need a scuff sanding so the new paint can bond. If the old coating is unstable, peeling, or soft, remove it before painting. The finish and texture of the old surface can also change how WH08 Palladian reads after it is applied.

For a smoother result with WH08 Palladian in MyPerfectColor custom spray paint, use light, even coats rather than one heavy pass. Keep the spray moving, overlap each pass slightly, and stop before the surface looks wet or flooded. Heavy coats can cause runs, uneven sheen, or a muddy-looking build on small parts like vents, brackets, and grilles. Let each coat dry as directed by the product label before adding the next coat.

The SDS is tied to the MyPerfectColor product chemistry, not to the WH08 Palladian color name by itself. You can review the current MyPerfectColor Safety Data Sheets here: MyPerfectColor Safety Data Sheets. Check the SDS for the exact product format you plan to order, especially if you are choosing between spray paint and another MyPerfectColor format.

Yes. A match of Pratt and Lambert WH08 Palladian can be ordered as MyPerfectColor custom spray paint for items such as switch covers, knobs, vents, speaker grilles, brackets, trim pieces, and similar hardware. That is often a practical way to match small removable parts to a larger painted area. For best results, clean the part well, prep glossy surfaces, and test the finish on an inconspicuous area if the substrate is unfamiliar.

No. The same color reference, including WH08 Palladian, can look different in matte, satin, semi-gloss, or gloss because the finish changes how light reflects from the surface. A lower-gloss finish usually looks flatter, while a higher-gloss finish can make the color seem deeper or brighter. If you are matching a nearby painted item, choose the finish as part of the order because finish affects the final appearance as much as the color match does.

Please note that if your material is not new then the paint may not work for touch up as your material has aged and is likely different than it was when new. Learn more about our color matching accuracy. If you need a touch up application, send us a part and we can create a touch up solution precisely matching the current color and sheen of your specific materials.

While MyPerfectColor can provide paint matched to the Pratt and Lambert WH08 Palladian, we don't provide any crossover information because this is a subjective determination. Every paint company offers its own unique selection of colors and rarely does a color have an exact equivalent in another company's color collection, so determining which color is the best approximation is a judgement call.

However, under the color image on a color page there is a link that says "Explore Related Colors". Clicking this link displays colors with similar values and you can look for any colors from the company you want.

Keep in mind that this just shows similar colors based on the color values we have stored in our database. It doesn't mean it is the same or give any approximation about how close the color is. You can play around with the Hue, Lightness and Chroma sliders to expand the selection.
