Step 1: Select Paint Type / Application

A match of Porter Paints 1194 T is a medium-light blue-green with a cool cast and a noticeable gray softening. It reads cleaner than a full teal, but less blue than a pale aqua, with moderate chroma that keeps it from looking sharp or highly saturated.

MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to this color is suited to small parts and fixtures where a cool muted blue-green needs to carry across a separate surface. It can be used on HVAC vents, speaker grilles, switch plates, metal brackets, shelving supports, handrails, mailbox hardware, PVC trim pieces, and other sprayable components that need to coordinate with an existing 1194 T reference.

Because the color sits in a mid-light range with moderate saturation, it usually covers more predictably than very bright colors, but substrate color and surface prep still matter. Darker or uneven undercoats can influence the final look, and texture or gloss can make the blue-green appear slightly softer or cleaner. For best results, use suitable prep and primer for the material being coated.

Frequently Asked Questions About Match of Porter Paints™ 1194 T *

How do I confirm Porter Paints 1194 T before ordering a MyPerfectColor match?

MyPerfectColor makes a match of Porter Paints 1194 T, not the original Porter Paints product. Confirm the target against a physical swatch or a known existing painted sample, not from a screen image alone.

If you are matching an item that is already painted, verify it in person under the light where it will be used before you place the order. That reduces the risk of ordering the wrong reference.

Can I use MyPerfectColor spray paint matched to Porter Paints 1194 T for baskets, frames, or shelving?

Yes. MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to Porter Paints 1194 T is practical for baskets, frames, shelving, furniture accents, brackets, knobs, decor pieces, and other small items where a spray application is easier than brushing.

It is a good way to coordinate a part to a known paint color reference when the item can be sprayed and properly prepared. Because spray application, surface texture, and substrate can change the final appearance, test the part and prep it before painting.

What should I confirm before ordering Porter Paints 1194 T in MyPerfectColor custom paint?

Before you order, confirm the exact brand color reference, the MyPerfectColor product type, the sheen, and the quantity. A custom-matched order is made to your selected reference, so choosing the wrong code, finish, or amount can leave you with a result that does not fit the project.

How do I choose a sheen for MyPerfectColor paint matched to Porter Paints 1194 T?

Choose the sheen based on how the item will be used and how much reflectivity you want on the finished surface. Lower sheens usually read less shiny and can be more forgiving on texture, while higher sheens are more reflective and can be easier to wipe clean.
