A match of ICI 834 Gilt Edge reads as a bright yellow-green with a strong yellow bias, moderate lightness, and a clear, saturated character. It is not a muted olive; the color has a fresher, more active look with only a slight green cast.
MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to 834 Gilt Edge can be useful for small parts and hard-to-brush items such as vents, switch covers, speaker grilles, brackets, shelving supports, metal railings, mailbox hardware, shutters, PVC trim pieces, and furniture accents. The color also suits accessory parts where a visible yellow-green finish is wanted on plastic, metal, wood, or previously coated surfaces after proper preparation.
Because this is a vivid color, coverage may take more than one coat for an even result, especially over darker or uneven substrates. The lightness of the color can also make show-through more noticeable, and sheen, film build, and surface texture can shift how yellow or green it appears once sprayed. On exterior pieces, brighter colors like this can also be more sensitive to sun exposure than quieter neutrals.

Frequently Asked Questions About Match of ICI™ 834 Gilt Edge *
Can I use MyPerfectColor 834 Gilt Edge spray paint on plastic parts, and do I need primer?
MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to ICI 834 Gilt Edge can work well on many plastic items, but plastics vary a lot in surface type and adhesion. Because of that, it is smart to test on the actual plastic piece first if possible.
Using the MyPerfectColor primer for Acrylic Enamel can help improve adhesion on difficult plastic substrates. For the best result, clean the part well, use the primer when needed, and confirm compatibility on the specific plastic before coating the full item.
How long does MyPerfectColor 834 Gilt Edge spray paint need before I can recoat or handle it?
MyPerfectColor spray paint matched to 834 Gilt Edge is typically dry to the touch within minutes, but dry to touch is not the same as ready for recoating or full handling.
Plan to recoat in about 1 to 2 hours. For full curing and the most durable handling, allow about two weeks. If the part will be used soon after painting, keep that curing time in mind when planning the project.
How should I choose a finish for MyPerfectColor 834 Gilt Edge?
The finish you choose affects more than appearance. It can change durability, reflectivity, and how easy the surface is to clean. It also changes how a match of 834 Gilt Edge reads after it is applied.
If you want a lower-reflection look, choose a flatter finish. If you want more wipeability and more reflected light, choose a glossier finish. Keep in mind that the same 834 Gilt Edge color can look slightly different across sheen levels, so match the finish to the part and the conditions it will face.
How much area will MyPerfectColor 834 Gilt Edge spray paint cover?
Coverage depends on the size of the item, surface texture, hiding power, application method, and how many coats you need. For spray paint, a typical can covers about 20 square feet with one coat.
If you are coating a textured or dark substrate with a match of 834 Gilt Edge, plan for possible extra coats and order accordingly. For larger projects, it is safer to estimate coverage conservatively so you do not run short before the job is complete.
Will MyPerfectColor 834 Gilt Edge look the same after it is applied under different lighting?
Not always. Once a match of 834 Gilt Edge is applied, the final look can shift with lighting, sheen, placement, and the surfaces around it. That is true even when the color match itself is correct.
This matters most when the painted part sits near an existing painted surface or in a strong light source. If the item will be viewed next to another surface, expect some appearance differences from the original reference because finish and environment can change how 834 Gilt Edge reads.
