Match of Dutch Boy™ 313-2DB Melodious Ivory *

Finish changes how the same 313-2DB Melodious Ivory color reads after application because sheen changes reflectivity. The color code identifies the color target, but it does not define sheen or how shiny the finished surface will look.

If you are matching an existing painted item, check the finish on the product page before ordering so the new coating does not read differently just because the sheen is different.

Yes. MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to 313-2DB Melodious Ivory is a practical option for small parts such as switch covers, knobs, vents, speaker grilles, brackets, and trim pieces when you want those items to coordinate with the selected color.

For best results, make sure the part can be cleaned and prepared properly before spraying, since surface condition affects how the matched color and finish come out.

A typical can of spray paint covers about 20 square feet with one coat, but actual coverage depends on surface size, texture, hiding power, application method, and how many coats you need.

For a few small parts in 313-2DB Melodious Ivory, one can may be enough. For larger items or jobs that need multiple coats, plan for more than one can. If you are ordering another MyPerfectColor paint format, coverage is usually much higher, generally about 400 to 600 square feet depending on the product and surface.

Primer may be needed depending on the substrate, the surface condition, and the paint type you choose. The safest rule is that primer never hurts and can improve adhesion, but it is not always required.

Before ordering or spraying 313-2DB Melodious Ivory, check the prep guidance for the exact MyPerfectColor product so you know whether primer is recommended for that surface.

The SDS is tied to the MyPerfectColor product and chemistry, not to the Dutch Boy color name alone. For the selected 313-2DB Melodious Ivory match, use the MyPerfectColor Safety Data Sheets page: MyPerfectColor Safety Data Sheets.

If you order a different MyPerfectColor format or product, check the SDS for that specific product as well.

While we can provide Dutch Boy 313-2DB Melodious Ivory 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.
