Match of CertainTeed™ Bufftech Black Granite (Allegheny) *

Yes, if you need direct touch up on factory-finished CertainTeed Bufftech Black Granite (Allegheny) siding, choose an Original Material Match product. In this collection, that is the option that includes a sheen match, which is important for touch-up work on factory-finished building materials.

If you are painting a separate replacement piece or an accessory instead of repairing the original surface, another MyPerfectColor format may be appropriate. For touch up, use the Original Material Match path.

It is the right factory color reference, but an older installed surface can still look different because of sun exposure, weathering, chalking, sheen change, texture, or batch variation. That means a correct match to CertainTeed Bufftech Black Granite (Allegheny) may still stand out beside aged siding.

If the repair will sit next to existing material that has been outdoors for a while, expect the original reference and the installed surface to be compared under real conditions, not just by color name alone.

For direct touch up on factory-finished CertainTeed Bufftech Black Granite (Allegheny), order Original Material Match because it includes a sheen match. That is the correct choice when the goal is to repair the original siding surface after damage or field work.

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

Yes. In this collection, CertainTeed Bufftech Black Granite (Allegheny) is treated as a siding color reference from CertainTeed. It can also be used when nearby exterior parts need to coordinate with that siding color, such as trim pieces, soffit, fascia, shutters, gutters, flashings, or similar accessories.

If the part you are painting is a separate component rather than the original siding surface, choose the product format based on that job. For direct touch up on the factory-finished siding itself, use Original Material Match.

When reordering CertainTeed Bufftech Black Granite (Allegheny), use the exact color name and the same product type you used before. If the job is direct touch up on factory-finished siding, keep using Original Material Match so the sheen-matched product choice stays consistent.

Even with the same color reference, the final appearance can still change with substrate, prep, age, and surrounding material condition. Reordering the exact color and finish is the best way to reduce avoidable variation.

It depends. MyPerfectColor matches the color of the CertainTeed Bufftech Black Granite (Allegheny) 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 CertainTeed Bufftech Black Granite (Allegheny) is based on matching an official CertainTeed color sample. The color and sheen of your specific CertainTeed 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.
