Match of Kelly Moore™ X 14-3 Purple Martin *

Confirm X 14-3 Purple Martin from a physical swatch, labeled sample, or an existing painted item that is known to use that Kelly Moore color reference. Screen images can shift with lighting and device settings, so they are not the best basis for ordering.

MyPerfectColor makes its own paint matched to the selected brand color reference, so the key purchase decision is whether X 14-3 Purple Martin is the correct target color. If the item you need to match is already aged or weathered, the safest approach is to verify the original reference first, because the existing surface may not still read like the original color.

For X 14-3 Purple Martin on metal or over an existing coating, the surface condition matters as much as the color match. Clean off dirt, grease, and contamination, remove rust where present, and scuff sound old coating so the new paint can bond properly.

Gloss, texture, and wear in the old finish can change how the final coated part looks even when the color match is correct. If the substrate is uneven, damaged, or failing, those conditions can show through or affect the final appearance, so it is worth checking the surface before ordering or applying the paint.

Finish is a practical ordering choice that changes how X 14-3 Purple Martin reads on the finished item. A glossier finish reflects more light, so the color can appear brighter or more reflective, while a flatter finish reduces reflection and can make the same matched color look softer.

If the part will sit next to an existing painted surface, the finish can matter almost as much as the color reference. When the appearance needs to be close, choose the finish that best fits the item and its surroundings instead of treating sheen as only a style preference.

A match of Kelly Moore X 14-3 Purple Martin is especially useful in MyPerfectColor custom spray paint when you need to coat small, awkward, or removable parts that are difficult to brush, such as trim details, fixtures, railings, vents, pipes, hardware, and accessories.

It is also practical for coordinated parts made from metal, plastic, wood, wicker, or previously coated surfaces, as long as the surface is prepared correctly. For these projects, the main advantage is getting a match of X 14-3 Purple Martin in a format that is easier to apply evenly on real-world parts.

The SDS is tied to the specific MyPerfectColor product and chemistry, not to the X 14-3 Purple Martin color name by itself. If you need safety information, look up the SDS for the exact product format you plan to order, such as spray paint.

MyPerfectColor Safety Data Sheets can be found on the Safety Data Sheets page for the product line. Use that page to match the SDS to the actual item you are purchasing, rather than assuming the brand color name alone is enough.

While we can provide Kelly Moore X 14-3 Purple Martin in paint, we don't provide any crossover information. We've found that every paint company offers its own unique selection of colors and rarely does a color have an exact equivalent in another brand.

However, under the color image on a color page there is a link that says "Explore Colors". Clicking this link displays colors with similar values and you can look for any colors from the brand you want.

Keep in mind that this just shows similar colors based on the color values we have stored in our database. It doesn't mean it is the same or give any approximation about how close the color is. You can play around with the Hue, Lightness and Chroma sliders to expand the selection.
