Match of ICI™ 1423 Black Sable *

Sheen changes how reflective the coated surface is, so the same match of ICI 1423 Black Sable can look different after application in matte, satin, gloss, or another finish. The color reference stays the same, but higher sheen usually reads more reflective and can make the finish look darker, while lower sheen reduces reflection. If you are coating more than one part, keep the same finish across all pieces so they read consistently.

Coverage depends on the surface size, texture, hiding power, application method, and how many coats you need. A typical can of spray paint covers about 20 square feet with one coat, while other paint formats typically cover about 400 to 600 square feet. For small items such as vents, switch covers, brackets, hardware, pipe, shutters, or removable fixtures matched to ICI 1423 Black Sable, plan for extra paint if the surface is rough, porous, or a darker color that may need more than one coat.

Primer depends on the substrate, its condition, and the paint type you choose for a match of ICI 1423 Black Sable. A primer never hurts and can only improve adhesion, but it is not always required. It is especially worth checking the prep guidance when you are painting bare plastic, metal, glossy coated parts, or a surface with wear, stains, or uneven porosity. Use a test area when the item will be seen close up or when the material is unfamiliar.

Before you place the order, confirm the exact ICI 1423 Black Sable color reference, the MyPerfectColor product format, the finish, and the quantity. This matters because spray paint, paint pens, brush-in-cap bottles, housepaint, epoxy, and urethane are used for different applications. Custom-made color matches are not returnable or refundable, so checking those details first is the safest way to avoid ordering the wrong item.

Safety Data Sheets are tied to the MyPerfectColor product or chemistry, not to the ICI 1423 Black Sable 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 use, especially if you are comparing spray paint with another MyPerfectColor coating.

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.

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.

While MyPerfectColor can provide paint matched to the ICI 1423 Black Sable, 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.
