Match of QAP™ TT1288 Tufftex White *

Use Original Material Match when you need direct touch up on QAP TT1288 Tufftex White siding after chips, scratches, rub marks, edge damage, field cuts, or service work. That product choice is the one meant for touch up because it includes a sheen match.

MyPerfectColor makes a matched paint for the QAP TT1288 Tufftex White reference. If the repair is beside older installed siding, expect some difference from age, weathering, or texture even when the color reference is correct.

Not always. A match of QAP TT1288 Tufftex White is a factory color reference, but an installed siding surface can change with sunlight, weather, chalking, and sheen change. Texture and batch variation can also affect how the color reads next to the surrounding area.

If you are repairing a small spot on aged siding, the safest expectation is a close match rather than a perfect invisible repair. When visual tolerance is tight, a sample or site-specific comparison is often safer than relying on the color reference alone.

For direct touch up on QAP TT1288 Tufftex White siding, choose Original Material Match. That is the format intended for touch up because it includes a sheen match.

Water-based housepaint and specialty products such as urethane or epoxy can still be color-matched options, but they are better for separate parts, accessories, or broader repainting. They should not be treated as direct touch-up products for factory-finished building materials.

Yes. A match of QAP TT1288 Tufftex White is a siding color reference that can be used to coordinate replacement parts and nearby accessories such as trim pieces, soffit, fascia, gutters, flashings, vents, shutters, or other paintable details.

If the item is a new part or a separate component that needs to blend with the siding, MyPerfectColor can make a matched paint to that reference. If you are repairing the original siding surface itself, use Original Material Match for the touch-up path.

Yes. Exterior exposure can change the way QAP TT1288 Tufftex White reads over time because UV, moisture, weathering, and chalking can alter the existing installed siding. That means the original color reference may not look exactly like the aged surface beside it.

For new damage on factory-finished siding, Original Material Match is the correct touch-up choice. For weathered, high-visibility, or tight-tolerance areas, it is often better to compare against the existing surface or an actual sample before ordering.

It depends. MyPerfectColor matches the color of the QAP TT1288 Tufftex White 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 TT1288 Tufftex White 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.

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.
