A match of ICI 1071 Grassroots is a medium-depth green with a soft yellow undertone. It reads as a grounded, slightly warm green rather than a clear blue-green, with enough chroma to look distinct but not so much that it feels bright or sharp.

MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to the selected ICI color reference can be used on vents, switch covers, shutters, railings, mailbox parts, speaker grilles, brackets, frames, shelving supports, and PVC trim pieces when a coordinated green is needed on a small part or removable component. It also works for hardware, appliance trim, and display fixtures where spray application helps cover edges, cutouts, and profiles more evenly than brushing.

At this depth, coverage is usually straightforward on a properly prepared surface, but the final read can shift with substrate color, texture, and finish. On darker, glossy, or uneven bases, additional coats may be needed for even color build, and surface prep matters because this kind of green can show sheen differences and surface condition more clearly than a very muted neutral.

Frequently Asked Questions About Match of ICI™ 1071 Grassroots *

How do I choose a finish for ICI 1071 Grassroots when ordering MyPerfectColor paint?

Choose the finish based on how the item will be used and how much reflectivity you want on the final part. With ICI 1071 Grassroots, the sheen can change how the matched color reads, so the same color in different finishes will not look identical.
