A match of Kelly Moore KM114-D Redhead is a warm, medium-deep red-brown with muted saturation and an earthy undertone. It reads more like browned clay or brick than a clean red, with enough depth to feel grounded without becoming overly dark.

MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to this color can be useful on railings, mailbox parts, gate hardware, shutter hardware, vent covers, speaker grilles, brackets, and small furniture accents. It also works on PVC trim pieces, fixture housings, switch plates, and other sprayable parts where a deeper red-brown needs to carry across metal, plastic, or coated surfaces after proper preparation.

Because the color is relatively deep, finish and substrate can change how much of the red versus brown undertone you see. Smooth metal and plastic usually benefit from careful prep and even film build, and patchy or glossy surfaces can make coverage and sheen differences more noticeable.

Frequently Asked Questions About Match of Kelly Moore™ KM114-D Redhead *

Can I spray KM114-D Redhead, Kelly Moore color 49842, over metal or an existing coating?

Yes, but the prep matters. For KM114-D Redhead, clean the metal first, remove rust, oil, wax, and loose paint, then scuff any glossy or sound existing coating so the new paint can grip. If the old finish is failing, flaking, or contaminated, repair or strip it before painting.

The final look can change if the old surface has different gloss, texture, or wear than the new coating. MyPerfectColor is supplying a custom match of KM114-D Redhead, not the original Kelly Moore paint, so a test application on the actual surface is the safest way to confirm the result.

Is KM114-D Redhead available as custom spray paint for switch covers, knobs, vents, or hardware?

Yes. A match of Kelly Moore KM114-D Redhead is a practical choice for MyPerfectColor custom spray paint when you need a matched finish on small parts such as switch covers, knobs, vents, speaker grilles, brackets, trim pieces, and similar items.

For best results, remove the part if you can, clean it well, and apply several light coats instead of one heavy coat. That helps reduce runs and gives a more even finish on small or detailed surfaces. If the item will sit next to an existing painted surface, remember that sheen, texture, and age can make the final appearance read differently even when the color match is correct.

Can KM114-D Redhead, Kelly Moore color 49842, be used on plastic or other difficult surfaces?

Yes, but plastics vary a lot, so testing on the actual material is important. MyPerfectColor spray paint sticks well to most plastics, but adhesion can change with the plastic type, surface texture, and any mold release or cleaning residue that is still present.

For KM114-D Redhead on plastic or other low-energy surfaces, clean the part thoroughly, lightly scuff if the material allows it, and use the MyPerfectColor primer for better adhesion when needed. A small test panel or hidden spot is the best way to confirm whether the coating will bond and whether the finish looks right on that specific substrate.

Which finish should I choose for KM114-D Redhead if I want the best match on my project?

The best finish for KM114-D Redhead depends on how the part will be used and what you want the surface to look like. Higher gloss usually gives more reflectivity and is often easier to clean, while lower gloss reduces shine and can be a better fit when you want less light reflection.

Sheen also changes how the color reads. The same KM114-D Redhead match can look different on a matte, satin, or gloss surface because gloss level changes the way light interacts with the coating. If you are coating a part beside an existing painted surface, try to choose a finish that is close to the surrounding surface so the appearance is more consistent.

Where can I find the SDS for KM114-D Redhead, Kelly Moore color 49842?

The SDS is tied to the specific MyPerfectColor product or chemistry you order, not to the KM114-D Redhead color name alone. That means the safety information can differ depending on whether you buy spray paint, another format, or a different binder system.

Before ordering, check the Safety Data Sheet for the exact MyPerfectColor product you plan to use. If you are buying custom spray paint matched to KM114-D Redhead, review the SDS for that spray product rather than relying on the color reference by itself.
