A match of ICI 943 Gateway is a muted olive green with a gray cast, medium-dark depth, and low chroma. It reads more earthy and subdued than clean or bright, with a yellow-green undertone that keeps it from looking flat.

MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to the selected brand color can be used on vents, switch covers, speaker grilles, brackets, railings, mailboxes, shutters, PVC trim pieces, and small hardware where a controlled spray finish is useful. It also fits baskets, frames, shelving, and fixture parts when you want those pieces to coordinate with a known paint reference without changing the material's function.

Because this color is fairly low in chroma and moderately deep, coverage is usually more forgiving than with a vivid color, but the final result can still shift with substrate color, texture, and sheen. On rough or uneven surfaces, the gray-green character may read softer; on smooth gloss surfaces, the olive undertone can look a bit clearer. If the item will sit next to an existing painted surface, differences in age and finish may be noticeable.
