Match of Porter Paints™ 15496-3 Granada Blue *

Yes, but plastics vary a lot, so test the MyPerfectColor match of 15496-3 Granada Blue on the actual plastic before painting the full item. For better adhesion, use the MyPerfectColor primer for acrylic enamel, since primers can improve bond on difficult substrates.

If the part is a low-energy plastic or has mold release, soap residue, or other contamination, surface prep matters even more than the color match itself.

Clean the metal first, then scuff sand if there is an existing coating that is sound enough to keep. Remove rust, loose paint, grease, wax, and other contamination before applying the MyPerfectColor match of 15496-3 Granada Blue.

The condition of the old surface affects the final result. Gloss, texture, chips, and wear in the existing coating can all change how the new color reads, even when the color match itself is correct.

Yes. MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to 15496-3 Granada Blue is practical for small parts and hardware such as switch covers, knobs, vents, speaker grilles, brackets, trim pieces, and similar items where a smooth sprayed finish is easier than brushing.

Because these parts are often handled often or installed next to other finished surfaces, a spray-applied match can be a more controlled way to get the color onto removable components.

Confirm 15496-3 Granada Blue from Porter Paints using a physical swatch or a known existing color reference, not from a screen image alone. MyPerfectColor uses that brand color reference to create its own custom-matched paint, so the target color should be verified before ordering.

The code and name identify the color target, but they do not define sheen, product line, or how an aged painted surface may look in person.

Yes. Finish changes reflectivity, and reflectivity changes how 15496-3 Granada Blue is perceived after application. The same color can look different in flat, satin, or gloss because the coating surface affects how light returns from the item.

If you are matching a specific existing part, choose the finish as a practical coating decision, not just a visual preference, because sheen differences can make the result look less like the original surface even when the color match is correct.

While MyPerfectColor can provide paint matched to the Porter Paints 15496-3 Granada Blue, 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.
