Match of Pratt and Lambert™ 230A Yellow Essence *

The SDS is tied to the MyPerfectColor paint product and chemistry, not to the Pratt and Lambert color name by itself. For 230A Yellow Essence, use the MyPerfectColor Safety Data Sheets page for the exact product you plan to order, since the SDS can vary by formula and format.

If you are comparing product options, make sure the SDS matches the MyPerfectColor item you are buying, especially if you are choosing spray paint or another format.

Yes, MyPerfectColor spray paint matched to 230A Yellow Essence can be used on many plastics, but plastic types vary and adhesion depends on the surface. Test on the actual part first if possible.

For better adhesion on difficult plastics or other low-energy surfaces, use the MyPerfectColor primer for Acrylic Enamel before painting. That reduces the risk of peeling or poor bond on parts like trim pieces, covers, or accessories.

Choose the finish based on how the part will be used, how much wear it will see, and how much reflectivity you want. The sheen also changes how 230A Yellow Essence reads on the finished item, so the same color can look different in matte, satin, or glossier finishes.

If the item needs easier cleaning or more surface durability, a higher sheen may be more practical. If you want less reflection, a lower sheen is usually the safer choice.

MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to 230A Yellow Essence is useful for small or awkward parts that are easier to spray than brush, such as trim details, fixtures, railings, vents, pipes, hardware, and accessories.

It is also practical for removable items or separate components that need to coordinate with a known Pratt and Lambert color reference. This format helps when you want a match of 230A Yellow Essence on parts that are difficult to coat evenly by hand.

Before ordering, confirm the color reference, the MyPerfectColor product type, the sheen, and the quantity you need. Custom-made color orders are made for your specific selection, so a mistake in any of those details can leave you with the wrong product for the job.

Because these orders are custom made, they are not returnable or refundable. It is worth double-checking that you want a match of 230A Yellow Essence in the format you plan to use.

MyPerfectColor has an original sample of the Pratt and Lambert 230A Yellow Essence in its color archive. This enables us to make paint and verify that it matches the original.

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.

While MyPerfectColor can provide paint matched to the Pratt and Lambert 230A Yellow Essence, 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.
