Match of Dulux™ Lichen *

Yes. MyPerfectColor can make a custom spray paint match of Dulux Lichen for items such as baskets, frames, shelving, furniture accents, and other removable or hard-to-brush pieces. Spray paint is often the practical choice when you want the item itself coordinated to a known brand color.

For the best result, make sure the surface is cleaned and prepared for the material you are coating. If the item already has a finish, or if it combines different materials, a test spray on a hidden area is a good way to confirm the final look before you commit to the full project.

Confirm Dulux Lichen from a physical swatch, an original brand color reference, or a known existing painted sample whenever possible. Screen colors can shift with device settings and lighting, so a display image alone is not a reliable ordering reference.

MyPerfectColor matches the selected Dulux color reference, so it is important to verify that Dulux Lichen 53748 is the exact target before you place the order. Also confirm the product format and sheen you need, since the color reference does not determine those details by itself.

It can work on many plastics, but plastics vary a lot, so you should test the actual part first. MyPerfectColor spray paint matched to Dulux Lichen is designed for practical color-matching projects, but adhesion depends on the specific plastic and how it was made or treated.

For better adhesion, clean the surface well, lightly scuff it if the material allows, and use the MyPerfectColor primer for Acrylic Enamel when the surface needs extra grip. A test on a hidden area is especially important for slick, flexible, or unfamiliar plastics.

The color reference stays Dulux Lichen 53748, but the finish changes how the matched paint reflects light. Matte, satin, and gloss can all make the same color read differently once it is applied.

For that reason, the finish is a practical ordering choice, not just a style choice. If the item will sit beside another painted surface, or if you need the part to blend with an existing finish, pick the sheen carefully and compare it on the actual substrate whenever possible.

Custom color orders should be confirmed carefully before checkout because they are not returnable or refundable. Before ordering, verify the Dulux Lichen 53748 reference, the MyPerfectColor product format, the sheen, and the quantity you need.

This is especially important for custom-matched paint, since the right color reference does not automatically mean the right finish or package size for your project. Checking those details up front helps avoid ordering the wrong product.

MyPerfectColor has an original sample of the Dulux Lichen in its color archive. This enables us to make paint and verify that it matches the original.

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. Learn more about our color matching accuracy. If you need a touch up application, send us a part and we can create a touch up solution precisely matching the current color and sheen of your specific materials.

MyPerfectColor offers custom spray paint matched to Dulux Lichen which enables you to conveniently achieve a professional spray-smooth finish. It is difficult to gauge spray paint coverage because it depends on how you apply it and the amount of overspray, but generally the 11oz spray will cover about 20 square feet per coat.

MyPerfectColor uses an acrylic enamel which is a fast-drying durable coating suitable for interior or exterior use. This paint sticks well to most surfaces including metal, plastics, powder-coatings, cabinets and primed or previously painted wood.

While MyPerfectColor can provide paint matched to the Dulux Lichen, 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.
