Match of QAP™ 230 Beige *

Yes, if the job is a chip, scratch, rub mark, field-cut edge, or other small repair on factory-finished siding, order MyPerfectColor paint matched to QAP 230 Beige in an Original Material Match option. That is the version that includes a sheen match, which is important for direct touch up. For larger repaints or separate parts, a different product type may be more appropriate.

Not always. A match of QAP 230 Beige is a factory color reference, but an older installed siding surface can look different because of sun exposure, weathering, chalking, sheen change, texture, and batch variation. Even when the color reference is correct, the aged surface beside it may read lighter, darker, glossier, or flatter than a new match.

For direct touch up on factory-finished siding, choose QAP 230 Beige in an Original Material Match format because it includes a sheen match. Water-based housepaint and specialty products such as urethane or epoxy can still be color-matched to QAP 230 Beige, but they are better suited to separate parts, accessories, or broader repainting and should not be treated as direct touch-up products.

A match of QAP 230 Beige is a building-material color reference for the siding family, so it can be used when you need MyPerfectColor paint matched to that color for replacement boards, trim pieces, soffit, fascia, gutters, flashings, vents, shutters, or other nearby accessories. If you are touching up the original factory-finished surface, use an Original Material Match option. If you are painting a separate part that needs to blend with the siding, choose the product format that fits that part.

Confirm the exact color, product type, and finish before you reorder QAP 230 Beige. Matching the same code is important, but repeatability also depends on the substrate, prep, application method, and the age of the surrounding siding. If the project includes touch up, keep using the Original Material Match format for each direct touch-up order so the sheen match stays consistent.

It depends. MyPerfectColor matches the color of the QAP 230 Beige but may not match the sheen. If you see Custom Sheen as a sheen option, this means we also match the sheen of the material, otherwise you would need to pick the closest sheen available. However, keep in mind that our version of the QAP 230 Beige is based on matching an official QAP color sample. The color and sheen of your specific QAP parts may vary. If your material is not new and has been exposed to the weather, then it is likely that the color has changed over time. MyPerfectColor samples not been exposed to sunlight and weather. If you need a touch up application, you may need to send us a part so we can create a touch up solution precisely matching the current color and sheen of your specific materials.

MyPerfectColor has the original QAP color samples. A sample of the QAP 230 Beige you are looking for is in our library. We are able to make paint and verify that it matches the original.

Please note that if your existing materials are not new and you are trying to touch up, they will have aged and are likely different now than they were when new. MyPerfectColor will be sending paint matching the sample at our facility which has not aged the same as your materials and may also be different due to other factors such as variations in manufacturing processes. If your match is critical, you may consider sending a part of your materials for precise color matching. Learn more about our color matching services.
