A match of ICI 475 Honeysweet reads as a warm, medium-light yellow-orange with a honeyed, slightly earthy cast. It is not a clean citrus yellow; the red-yellow balance gives it a softer, more ochre-like character and a moderate amount of color strength.
MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to the selected brand color can be useful on vents, switch covers, speaker grilles, mailbox parts, hardware, shelf brackets, railings, shutters, PVC trim pieces, and furniture accents when a warm coordinated finish is needed on small sprayable surfaces. It also suits displays, fixtures, and removable components that need a repeatable match in a known brand color.
Because the color has noticeable chroma, coverage may take more than one coat over dark or uneven substrates. A uniform primer or base surface can help the color read more evenly, and sheen or texture changes can shift it slightly warmer or more muted. On exterior parts, wear and sun exposure may gradually soften the brightness of the color.

Frequently Asked Questions About Match of ICI™ 475 Honeysweet *
What should I confirm before ordering ICI 475 Honeysweet as MyPerfectColor custom spray paint?
Before you place the order, confirm the exact color reference, the MyPerfectColor product format you need, the sheen, and the quantity. MyPerfectColor is making its own paint matched to ICI 475 Honeysweet, not selling the original ICI paint product.
Because these are custom-made color orders, they should be chosen carefully. Once the order is made to your selected specifications, it is not returnable or refundable.
Why can a match of ICI 475 Honeysweet look different after it is applied to the finished item?
Even when the color match is correct, ICI 475 Honeysweet can read differently after application because of lighting, where the item is placed, the sheen you choose, and the nearby surfaces around it.
Substrate texture and film build can also change how the finished coating appears. If the item will sit beside an existing painted surface, those differences are more likely to be noticed.
How should I prep a surface before applying a match of ICI 475 Honeysweet?
For better results, clean the surface first, remove grease or residue, and use light scuffing where appropriate so the coating can bond properly. Mask off areas that should stay unpainted, and test the product on the actual surface before coating a larger area.
The right prep depends on the material, so follow the product directions for the substrate you are painting. Good preparation matters for both adhesion and how ICI 475 Honeysweet looks after it dries.
What kinds of projects work well with ICI 475 Honeysweet custom spray paint?
ICI 475 Honeysweet custom spray paint is useful for small parts and awkward items such as trim details, fixtures, railings, vents, pipes, hardware, accessories, baskets, and frames. Spray application is often the practical choice when brushing would be slow or hard to control.
It is also useful for parts that need a repeatable color across different materials, including metal, plastic, wood, and previously coated surfaces, as long as the surface is properly prepared first.
How much MyPerfectColor paint matched to ICI 475 Honeysweet do I need for my project?
Coverage depends on the surface size, texture, hiding power, application method, and the number of coats you expect to use. A typical can of spray paint covers about 20 square feet with one coat. Other paint formats typically cover about 400 to 600 square feet, depending on the product and the surface.
If the surface is textured, porous, or a darker color that needs more hiding, plan on extra material. Buying enough for a test area and a final coat is usually safer than ordering too little.

How do I find the same color as the ICI 475 Honeysweet in a different company?
While MyPerfectColor can provide paint matched to the ICI 475 Honeysweet, 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.
