A match of Dulux Parakeet is a light, bright yellow-green with a clear cast and strong chroma. It reads as a vivid green-gold rather than a muted olive, with enough yellow in the undertone to keep it from feeling cool or gray.

MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to Dulux Parakeet is practical for small parts and accessories that can take a strong color: baskets, frames, shelving edges, brackets, railings, switch covers, vents, speaker grilles, hardware, and other removable details. It can also be used on PVC, shutters, mailboxes, or fixture pieces when a coordinated accent color is needed after proper surface preparation.

Because this is a high-chroma color, it may take additional coats for even coverage, especially over dark, porous, or uneven substrates. Finish, surface texture, and film build can change how bright it reads; smoother surfaces usually show the color more cleanly, while rougher surfaces can make it appear slightly softer. On outdoor parts, vivid colors can be more affected by exposure than quieter neutrals, so coating choice and preparation matter.

How do I find the same color as the Dulux Parakeet in a different company?

While MyPerfectColor can provide paint matched to the Dulux Parakeet, 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.
