Match of Dulux™ 16J Amber *

Coverage for a match of Dulux 16J Amber depends on surface size, texture, how much hiding power is needed, and whether the project needs one coat or more. A typical can of spray paint covers about 20 square feet with one coat. If you are using a different MyPerfectColor paint format, coverage is usually between 400 and 600 square feet, but the exact amount still depends on the product and surface.

Plan extra material for rough, porous, dark, or uneven parts, because those conditions usually take more paint to fully cover.

Yes, MyPerfectColor spray paint matched to Dulux 16J Amber can be used on many plastic items, but plastics vary a lot. Test on the actual part first, because some plastics need different prep or a different primer to hold up well.

If you want better adhesion on a difficult plastic, use the MyPerfectColor primer before painting. That is the safest way to reduce the chance of peeling or poor adhesion on low-energy surfaces.

Finish changes how a match of Dulux 16J Amber looks after it is applied. The color code identifies the target color, but it does not define sheen, and gloss level can make the same color read lighter, darker, or more reflective.

If you are matching an existing coated part, choose the finish that best fits the surface you are painting, because a different sheen can make the result look different even when the color match is correct.

MyPerfectColor spray paint matched to Dulux 16J Amber is usually dry to the touch within minutes. Recoating is generally done after 1 to 2 hours, and full cure takes about 2 weeks.

Dry to the touch does not mean ready for heavy handling, stacking, or installation. Allow more time if you applied a heavy coat or if temperature or humidity slows drying.

MyPerfectColor spray paint matched to Dulux 16J Amber is practical for small or removable items where you want the part to coordinate with a known color. Common uses include frames, baskets, shelving, furniture accents, hardware, vents, access covers, trim pieces, fixtures, and other accessories.

It is a good option when the goal is a repeatable color match on a part that is easier to spray than to brush. For metal, plastic, wood, wicker, or previously coated items, prepare the surface correctly before painting.

MyPerfectColor has an original sample of the Dulux 16J Amber 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.

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 16J Amber, 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.
