Match of Valspar™ 335A-2 Chromium *

Yes. When you order a match of Valspar 335A-2 Chromium, the finish you choose can change both appearance and performance on the finished item. A glossier finish usually looks a bit brighter and is easier to wipe clean, while a flatter finish reduces reflectivity and can help hide surface texture.

If the part will be handled often or cleaned frequently, choose the finish that fits that use case first, then expect the same color reference to read slightly different once the sheen changes. The color match is still based on Valspar 335A-2 Chromium, but the final appearance is affected by gloss level.

Plastic can be painted, but different plastics behave differently, so testing on the actual part is important before committing to the full project. MyPerfectColor spray paint matched to Valspar 335A-2 Chromium works well on most plastics, but prep and primer can make a real difference in adhesion.

For difficult or unknown plastic, clean the surface well, test on a small area, and use the MyPerfectColor primer for acrylic enamel to improve adhesion. That approach helps reduce the risk of peeling or poor bond on low-energy surfaces.

Coverage depends on the size of the item, the texture of the surface, the application method, and how many coats are needed. For custom spray paint, a typical can covers about 20 square feet with one coat, so a large mailbox, several small fixtures, or a textured surface may need more than one can.

If you are using another MyPerfectColor paint format matched to Valspar 335A-2 Chromium, coverage is often about 400 to 600 square feet per gallon, but the real-world result still depends on the surface and the hiding power of the color. Plan for extra material if you expect multiple coats or if the substrate is uneven.

Even a correct match of Valspar 335A-2 Chromium can read differently after application because lighting, sheen, nearby surfaces, and the substrate all affect how the color appears. A smooth metal part, a textured plastic piece, and a painted wall can all show the same color a little differently.

If the finished item will sit beside an existing painted surface, evaluate it in the same lighting where it will be used. That gives a more realistic view of how the MyPerfectColor match will look once it is installed or put back into service.

Confirm Valspar 335A-2 Chromium from a physical swatch or a known existing color reference, not from a screen alone. MyPerfectColor matches the selected brand color reference, so the goal is to verify the target color before you place the order.

If you are matching an older painted item, compare it to the original brand color standard whenever possible, because age and wear can make an existing surface look different from the original reference. Once you know Valspar 335A-2 Chromium is the target, you can order the MyPerfectColor match with more confidence.

MyPerfectColor uses an acrylic enamel which is a fast-drying durable coating suitable for interior or exterior use.

While we can provide Valspar 335A-2 Chromium in paint, we don't provide any crossover information. We've found that every paint company offers its own unique selection of colors and rarely does a color have an exact equivalent in another brand.

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