Step 1: Select Paint Type / Application

A match of ICI 809 Full Moon reads as a light yellow-gold with a warm cast and a fairly clean, clear look. It is bright rather than deep, with enough chroma to register as yellow but still soft enough to avoid looking harsh.

MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to the selected brand color can be used on vents, switch covers, speaker grilles, mailbox parts, brackets, shelf edges, railings, PVC, and small furniture accents where a warm light accent or coordinated architectural detail is needed. It also works for hardware, display pieces, and removable components that need a consistent color across metal, plastic, wood, or previously coated surfaces.

Because this is a very light color, it can show dark substrates, edge build-up, or surface texture more readily than deeper shades. Coverage may improve with proper prep and multiple light coats, and the final appearance can shift with sheen, substrate, and film build.

Frequently Asked Questions About Match of ICI™ 809 Full Moon *

Can MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to ICI 809 Full Moon be used for switch covers, knobs, vents, or hardware?

Yes. MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to ICI 809 Full Moon is a practical option for small parts and fixtures such as switch covers, knobs, vents, speaker grilles, brackets, and trim pieces when a spray-applied finish is easier than brushing.

For the best result, clean the part well and confirm the item can be coated evenly. The final look can change with substrate texture, surface prep, and sheen, so a test on the actual part is a good way to confirm the finished appearance before painting the full piece.

Will MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to ICI 809 Full Moon stick to plastics and other difficult surfaces?

Plastics vary a lot, so a match of ICI 809 Full Moon may bond well on one part and need more prep on another. MyPerfectColor spray paint adheres well to most plastics, but testing on the actual material is the safest way to confirm adhesion before you paint the full item.

For better adhesion on plastics or other low-energy surfaces, use the MyPerfectColor primer for Acrylic Enamel. You can find it here: https://www.myperfectcolor.com/en/product/995031-Primer-for-Acrylic-Enamel/ . If the surface is unfamiliar, do a test coat first so you can check adhesion and appearance on the real substrate.

Where can I find the SDS for ICI 809 Full Moon from MyPerfectColor?

The SDS is tied to the MyPerfectColor product and chemistry, not the ICI 809 Full Moon color name by itself. If you need safety information, use the SDS for the exact MyPerfectColor format you plan to order.

MyPerfectColor Safety Data Sheets are available on the Safety Data Sheets page here: https://www.myperfectcolor.com/Safety-Data-Sheets/33970.htm . If you are not sure which product format you need, match the SDS to the specific paint type you plan to use, such as spray paint or another MyPerfectColor format.

How much area will MyPerfectColor spray paint matched to ICI 809 Full Moon cover?

A typical can of MyPerfectColor spray paint covers about 20 square feet with one coat, but actual coverage for ICI 809 Full Moon depends on the surface size, texture, hiding power, application method, and the number of coats needed.

If the surface is rough, porous, dark, or uneven, you may need more paint than the nominal coverage suggests. For ordering, plan around the total surface area and allow extra for test spraying and any additional coats needed to get even coverage.

What prep is needed before applying ICI 809 Full Moon to metal or an existing coating?

Before applying a match of ICI 809 Full Moon to metal or an already painted surface, clean off dust, grease, and other contamination, then scuff glossy areas so the new coating can bond properly. If there is rust, loose paint, or failing coating, remove it before painting.

The condition of the old finish can affect how the new color looks, especially if the surface has different gloss, texture, or wear. A test area is the safest way to check adhesion and appearance before you commit to the full part or fixture.

While MyPerfectColor can provide paint matched to the ICI 809 Full Moon, 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.
