Match of Formica™ 800-58 Artichoke *

Yes, if you are ordering a touch-up product for a factory-finished building material, use the MyPerfectColor option that explicitly says Original Material Match. For Formica 800-58 Artichoke, that is the path that includes a sheen match and is intended for direct touch up after chips, scratches, rub marks, edge damage, or service work.

If you are painting a separate part, accessory, or replacement piece, a different MyPerfectColor format may be appropriate, but for direct touch up on the original laminate surface, choose Original Material Match.

Not always. A match of Formica 800-58 Artichoke is a factory color reference, but an older installed surface can look different because of sun exposure, wear, cleaning, chalking, sheen change, texture change, or batch variation. Even when the color reference is correct, the aged surface beside it may not read exactly the same.

If the repair is next to existing installed material, expect some visible difference risk and check whether the target is the original color reference, the existing part, or a site-specific match.

For direct touch up on factory-finished building materials, choose the MyPerfectColor product that explicitly says Original Material Match for Formica 800-58 Artichoke. That is the only option in this collection that should be treated as suitable 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 to Formica 800-58 Artichoke, but they are better for separate parts, accessories, or broader repainting. They should not be used as the direct touch-up choice for the original finished surface.

Yes. A match of Formica 800-58 Artichoke can be used as a match reference for coordinated parts such as fixtures, edge details, sample boards, displays, fabricated components, or replacement pieces that need to blend with nearby Formica laminate colors.

For a direct repair on the original laminate surface, use the Original Material Match option. For a separate part or accessory, a matched MyPerfectColor product for Formica 800-58 Artichoke can be a practical choice even when the goal is coordination rather than touch up.

Because color is only one part of the result. A match of Formica 800-58 Artichoke can still look different if the painted surface has a different gloss level, texture, embossing, substrate, or finish behavior than the original laminate. Those factors can change how the color reads after application.

If the project is a touch up, choose Original Material Match so the product includes a sheen match. If the surface you are painting is not the same as the original material, expect the final appearance to depend on both color and surface characteristics.

If you want to touch up, or need a precise match of the color and sheen of the Formica 800-58 Artichoke, choose spray paint, paint pens or touch up bottles. However, keep in mind that our version of the Formica 800-58 Artichoke is based on matching an official Formica color sample we have in our archives. The color and sheen of your specific Formica materials may vary. If your laminate is not new, then it is likely that the color has changed over time. If your need for a precise match is critical, we recommend that you send a sample so we can create a touch up solution precisely matching the materials of your specific batch.
