Match of Home Hardware™ FD080-0 Drabware *

Yes. MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to FD080-0 Drabware is a practical choice for small parts and hardware such as switch covers, knobs, vents, speaker grilles, brackets, trim pieces, and similar items where spray application helps you get an even finish.

It is best for removable or awkward pieces that are easier to spray than brush. Final appearance still depends on surface prep, the substrate, and the sheen you choose.

Before ordering FD080-0 Drabware, confirm the exact color reference, the MyPerfectColor product format, the sheen, and the quantity you need. That helps avoid ordering the wrong version for your project.

Remember that you are buying MyPerfectColor paint matched to the selected brand color reference, not the original Home Hardware paint. Custom-made color matches are made to order, so they should be chosen carefully because they are not returnable or refundable.

For metal or a previously coated part, start with a clean, dry surface. Remove dirt, grease, and loose material, then scuff glossy areas so the new coating can grip better. If there is rust or contamination, address that before painting.

The condition of the old coating, plus its gloss and texture, can affect how FD080-0 Drabware looks after it dries. If the part is hard to evaluate, test on a small area first.

Choose the sheen based on how the part will be used and how you want the finished item to perform. Higher gloss finishes are usually easier to wipe clean and look more reflective, while flatter finishes can help reduce the look of surface imperfections.

Sheen also changes how FD080-0 Drabware reads on the finished surface. The same color can look different in gloss, satin, or flat, so select the finish that best fits the item you are painting and the maintenance you expect.

MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to FD080-0 Drabware is typically dry to touch within minutes, can usually be recoated after about one to two hours, and is fully cured in about two weeks.

Dry to touch, recoat time, and full cure are different stages. Let the coating reach the proper stage before heavy handling, assembly, or service so the finish has time to set properly.

Please note that if your material is not new then the paint may not work for touch up as your material has aged and is likely different than it was when new.

While MyPerfectColor can provide paint matched to the Home Hardware FD080-0 Drabware, we don't provide any crossover information because this is a subjective determination. Every paint company offers its own unique selection of colors and rarely does a color have an exact equivalent in another company's color collection, so determining which color is the best approximation is a judgement call.

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