Match of Duron™ AC144N Black Deco *

A match of Duron AC144N Black Deco can read differently once it is applied because lighting, viewing angle, sheen, surface texture, and the colors next to it all affect how the finish appears. A custom match can be correct and still look a little different on the finished item if the substrate or application method changes the surface reflection.

If this color will sit next to an existing painted part, review it in the same light where it will be used and expect the final appearance to be influenced by the surrounding materials. This is especially important for spray-painted parts, because film build and sheen can change the visual result even when the color match itself is accurate.

The SDS is tied to the MyPerfectColor paint product, not to the AC144N Black Deco color name alone. To get the correct safety information, use the SDS for the specific MyPerfectColor product you plan to order.

MyPerfectColor Safety Data Sheets can be found on the Safety Data Sheets page here: https://www.myperfectcolor.com/Safety-Data-Sheets/33970.htm. Check the sheet that matches the product format you are buying, such as spray paint or another MyPerfectColor coating.

Coverage depends on the surface size, texture, hiding power, application method, and how many coats are needed. For planning, a typical can of spray paint covers about 20 square feet with one coat, while other paints often cover between 400 and 600 square feet.

If you are coating a rough, porous, or dark surface, plan on more material than a smooth surface would need. For AC144N Black Deco, order enough to cover the full area plus extra for additional coats if the first coat does not hide evenly.

Primer depends on the substrate, its condition, and the paint system you choose. As a general rule, primer never hurts and can improve adhesion, but it is not always required for every surface.

For AC144N Black Deco, primer is more likely to help on bare, repaired, glossy, porous, or otherwise difficult surfaces. If you are unsure, check the prep guidance for the selected MyPerfectColor product and consider priming when adhesion or hiding is a concern.

Plastics vary widely, so the right prep can depend on the exact material. MyPerfectColor spray paint sticks well to most plastics, but testing on the actual part is important because low-energy surfaces and molded plastics can behave differently.

For better adhesion on plastic, use the MyPerfectColor primer made for acrylic enamel. If AC144N Black Deco is going onto a plastic item, a test application is the safest way to confirm adhesion and appearance before painting the full part.

MyPerfectColor has an original sample of the Duron AC144N Black Deco 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 Duron AC144N Black Deco, 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.
