Match of Prismatic Powders™ PSS-1718 Captive Blue *

MyPerfectColor precisely matches the color and finish of PSS-1718 Captive Blue, but an older or already cured part can still read differently after application. Gloss, texture, age, weathering, cure, substrate, and batch variation can all change how the finish looks beside an existing part.

If the repair must blend with a specific installed piece, use that part or an approved sample as the visual reference whenever possible.

Yes. A match of Prismatic Powders PSS-1718 Captive Blue is commonly ordered as touch-up paint for chips, scratches, rub marks, transport damage, installation damage, fabrication damage, drilled holes, cut edges, field modifications, or missed coverage in the original finish.

The goal is to match the color and finish of the coated part as closely as possible for repair work, not to change the original coating system. For best results, apply it only to the affected area and confirm the repair against the surrounding cured finish under the same lighting.

Yes. A match of Prismatic Powders PSS-1718 Captive Blue is often used to coordinate small ancillary items that cannot go through the original coating process, such as screw heads, rivet heads, clips, covers, trim plugs, end caps, and some plastic parts.

For these parts, the main decision is choosing the right application format and making sure the part is clean, paintable, and sized appropriately for the finish method you plan to use. MyPerfectColor offers options such as touch-up paint, custom spray paint, paint pens, and other formats for factory-finish coordination.

Not always. MyPerfectColor precisely matches the color and finish of PSS-1718 Captive Blue, but a fresh liquid application can still look different next to an older cured finish because the original part may have its own gloss, texture, film build, cure, and age-related changes.

If you need a side-by-side match on an existing coated part, the safest approach is to compare against the actual part or an approved sample rather than relying on the brand reference alone.

Gloss, texture, and film build can change how PSS-1718 Captive Blue appears after application. Even when the color is correct, a smoother, flatter, or thicker application can read differently from a textured or higher-gloss coated surface.

For that reason, match decisions should account for the original surface condition as well as the color reference. If the part you are repairing has a specific sheen or texture, choose the format and application method that best fits that finish behavior.

The color match is refined through an iterative process to improve the match accuracy of both the color and sheen.
