Match of Dulux™ Sea Holly *

Confirm Dulux Sea Holly against a physical swatch or a known existing painted part, not from a screen alone. MyPerfectColor makes a custom match to the selected brand color reference, so the key decision is whether the reference you are using is the exact Sea Holly target you want ordered.

If you are matching an existing item, check that it has not aged, faded, or been repainted before you place the order.

Plastic substrates can vary a lot, so test Dulux Sea Holly on the actual part before painting a full set of items such as vents, covers, trim pieces, or housings. MyPerfectColor spray paint is designed to adhere well to most plastics, but surface type and prep still matter.

For better adhesion, clean the part well and use the MyPerfectColor primer for acrylic enamel when the substrate or project calls for it. A test area is the safest way to confirm how the color and adhesion will behave on that exact plastic.

A match of Dulux Sea Holly can look different if you order it in matte versus gloss because finish changes how light reflects off the surface. The same matched color is still the same reference, but the finished part may read lighter, deeper, or sharper depending on sheen and texture.

If the item will sit next to an existing painted surface, choose the finish carefully and do not rely on color code alone to predict appearance.

When you apply Dulux Sea Holly to metal or an existing coating, clean off dirt, oil, rust, and loose material before painting. Glossy or contaminated surfaces can reduce adhesion and can also change how the color appears once it dries.

Scuffing the surface and checking the condition of the old coating can help, especially on railings, brackets, hardware, or fixture parts where the previous finish is still visible.

For Dulux Sea Holly, use light, even coats instead of one heavy pass. Keep the can moving, overlap each pass slightly, and hold a consistent distance so small parts like grilles, switch covers, pipes, and brackets finish more evenly.

Heavy spraying can cause runs, uneven sheen, or color build that looks muddy. Multiple controlled coats usually give a cleaner result than trying to cover in one pass.

MyPerfectColor has an original sample of the Dulux Sea Holly 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. 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 Dulux Sea Holly, 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.
