A match of IFS Coatings PLSF 70218 / RAL 7016 Anthracite Grey is a deep charcoal gray with a cool, slightly blue-leaning undertone. It is low in chroma and reads dark rather than medium, with an LRV of 4.38 that keeps the color firmly in the near-black gray range.
MyPerfectColor custom spray paint in this color is useful for touch-up after transportation damage, installation damage, fabrication work, field drilling, or missed spots on powder-coated parts. It can also be used on replacement hardware and ancillary items such as screw heads, trim plugs, end caps, clips, vents, switch covers, brackets, railings, enclosures, and fabricated accessories that need to coordinate with the coated assembly.
Because this is a dark, restrained gray, surface prep and finish quality can matter as much as the color itself. Sheen differences, film build, and substrate texture may be visible on small repair areas, and thin coverage can show more readily over lighter or uneven surfaces. MyPerfectColor precisely matches the color and finish, but an older cured part may still read differently from a fresh repair because of wear, gloss change, or texture variation.
For prototypes, sample panels, and replacement parts, this reference gives a practical starting point when the original coated finish is not available. If you are matching to an installed part, comparing against the actual cured surface is useful when the tolerance is tight or when the surrounding finish has aged.

MyPerfectColor precisely matches the color and finish of IFS Coatings PLSF 70218 / RAL 7016 Anthracite Grey, but an older or already cured part can still read differently after application. Gloss, texture, age, weathering, cure history, substrate, and batch variation can all affect how the finish looks beside the surrounding part.
If the match is going next to an existing coated part and the tolerance is tight, the safest reference is usually the actual part or an approved sample rather than the color name alone.
Yes. A match of IFS Coatings PLSF 70218 / RAL 7016 Anthracite Grey is a practical match reference for touch-up after transportation damage, installation damage, fabrication damage, handling marks, drilled holes, cut edges, welding work, field modifications, or missed spots in the original finish.
MyPerfectColor precisely matches the color and finish, so it is intended for repair and coordination work on the coated part. For small touch-ups beside a cured finish, remember that the surrounding area may have different gloss or texture from the repaired spot.
Yes. A match of IFS Coatings PLSF 70218 / RAL 7016 Anthracite Grey is often used as a reference when painting ancillary items that need to coordinate with a coated assembly but cannot go through the original finish process.
That includes plastic snaps, screw heads, rivet heads, trim plugs, end caps, clips, covers, fastener hardware, and small brackets. MyPerfectColor can be used to match the color and finish of those separate parts so they coordinate with the finished assembly.
Not always. MyPerfectColor precisely matches the color and finish of IFS Coatings PLSF 70218 / RAL 7016 Anthracite Grey, but a fresh liquid touch-up can still look different next to an older cured finish because of gloss, texture, film build, substrate, cure, and surface age.
That is true even when the color reference is correct. If the part will be viewed side by side with the existing finish, an existing sample or the actual part is the better way to judge whether the match tolerance is acceptable.
Before ordering, confirm that IFS Coatings PLSF 70218 / RAL 7016 Anthracite Grey is the correct reference, that the finish expectation is right for the part, and that you are ordering the correct quantity and format for the job.
