Match of Duron™ 8556A Peking Blue *

Confirm 8556A Peking Blue from a physical swatch or another known existing color reference from Duron, not from a screen image alone. MyPerfectColor matches to the original brand color standard, so it is important to verify that 8556A Peking Blue is the target you want before you place the order.

If you are matching an existing painted item, use the least altered reference you can find. Aging, fading, and previous recoating can make an old surface different from the original brand color.

The SDS is tied to the MyPerfectColor product and chemistry, not to the 8556A Peking Blue color name by itself. Check the MyPerfectColor Safety Data Sheets page for the SDS that matches the product format you plan to order.

If you are choosing between spray paint or another MyPerfectColor format, make sure you review the SDS for that specific product, since safety information can differ by formulation.

Yes. MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to 8556A Peking Blue is a practical option for small parts and fixtures such as switch covers, vents, speaker grilles, brackets, knobs, and trim pieces when you want a smooth sprayed finish.

For these items, the key is choosing the right product format and preparing the surface correctly. A clean, sound surface and the right prep steps will matter more than the color name alone.

Primer depends on the substrate, the surface condition, and the product you ordered, so there is no single rule for every project. On many surfaces, primer is optional, but it can improve adhesion and help create a more even base.

As a practical rule, primer usually does not hurt and can only help, especially on bare, glossy, patched, or difficult surfaces. Follow the prep guidance for the specific MyPerfectColor product you choose before applying 8556A Peking Blue.

Even when the color match is correct, 8556A Peking Blue can read differently after application because lighting, sheen, texture, film build, and nearby surfaces all affect appearance. That is normal for a matched coating and is not the same as the color reference itself being wrong.

If the finished item will sit next to an existing painted surface, judge it under the final lighting and on the final substrate whenever possible. A match that is acceptable on one material or in one light may appear different on another.

MyPerfectColor has an original sample of the Duron 8556A Peking Blue 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 8556A Peking Blue, 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.
