A match of Dulux Colonial Red U.s.a. is a deep, warm red with a noticeable brown undertone. It reads muted rather than vivid, with low lightness and a grounded red-brown character that can lean slightly earthy depending on the finish and substrate.
MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to Colonial Red U.s.a. is useful for smaller parts and removable items that need this darker red reference, such as mailboxes, railings, brackets, vent covers, switch plates, speaker grilles, shelf supports, shutters, and hardware. It can also be used on PVC trim pieces, fixture accents, and other sprayable components where a repeatable color match matters more than painting a large surface.
Because this is a fairly dark color, lighter substrates may need good prep and more than one coat for even coverage. Surface condition, primer, and finish can change how deep or brown the color appears, and glossier finishes can make texture, seams, or old wear more noticeable.

While MyPerfectColor can provide paint matched to the Dulux Colonial Red U.s.a., 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.
