Step 1: Select Paint Type / Application

A match of Valspar 222-4 Aqua Regia reads as a cool, medium-light aqua with a clear blue-green balance and a slight gray cast. With an LRV near 49, it sits in the middle of the light-to-mid range rather than reading very pale or deep.

MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to the selected Valspar color reference can be used on vents, switch plates, speaker grilles, wall brackets, shelf supports, mailboxes, and trim pieces where a repeatable aqua finish is needed on small parts. It is also practical for PVC covers, hardware, basket frames, and other removable items that benefit from a consistent blue-green color.

Because the color has moderate chroma rather than a heavy mute, substrate and finish will affect the final read. A dark or uneven base can change how cleanly the color appears, while gloss can make it read a bit brighter and more reflective. On textured surfaces, it often looks softer and slightly grayer.

Frequently Asked Questions About Match of Valspar™ 222-4 Aqua Regia *

How do I confirm the right reference for Valspar 222-4 Aqua Regia before ordering a MyPerfectColor match?

Confirm Valspar 222-4 Aqua Regia from a physical swatch, a known existing painted part, or another reliable brand reference before ordering. Screen images can shift with lighting and display settings, so they are not enough by themselves. MyPerfectColor matches to the selected brand color reference, so verifying the target color first helps reduce the risk of ordering the wrong match.

Are custom orders for Valspar 222-4 Aqua Regia returnable if I choose the wrong sheen or product type?

No. Custom-made color matches for Valspar 222-4 Aqua Regia should be ordered carefully because they are not returnable or refundable. Before placing the order, confirm the color reference, the MyPerfectColor product format, the sheen, and the quantity you need. That is the best way to avoid a mismatch between the paint you receive and the project requirements.

Where can I find the SDS for MyPerfectColor paint matched to Valspar 222-4 Aqua Regia?

The Safety Data Sheet is tied to the MyPerfectColor paint product and its chemistry, not the Valspar 222-4 Aqua Regia color name alone. You can find MyPerfectColor Safety Data Sheets here: https://www.myperfectcolor.com/Safety-Data-Sheets/33970.htm. Check the SDS for the exact product format you plan to order.

What surface prep should I do before applying Valspar 222-4 Aqua Regia as a MyPerfectColor match?

For Valspar 222-4 Aqua Regia, start with a clean, dry surface and remove dirt, oils, wax, and loose coating. Light scuffing can help where appropriate, then mask off areas that should not be painted. Test the MyPerfectColor match on the actual surface first, especially if the part is textured, glossy, or already coated, so you can confirm adhesion and appearance before doing the full application.

Can Valspar 222-4 Aqua Regia be used on plastic parts, and do I need a primer?

Plastics vary widely, so Valspar 222-4 Aqua Regia should be tested on the actual plastic before a full job. MyPerfectColor spray paint sticks well to most plastics, but using the MyPerfectColor primer can improve adhesion on difficult or low-energy surfaces. If the plastic is smooth, flexible, or unknown, a test panel is the safest way to confirm the result before you paint the final part.
