A match of ICI 1604 Little Lilac reads as a light, muted lilac-gray with a cool cast and very low chroma. It is not a bright lavender; the color stays subdued and slightly gray, which gives it a restrained look on small painted parts.
MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to the selected brand color can be useful on vents, switch covers, speaker grilles, shelf brackets, picture frames, small furniture accents, mailboxes, railing components, or PVC trim pieces when you want those items to follow the same lilac-gray reference. It also suits removable hardware, display parts, and other small surfaces where spray application is practical.
Because the color is quiet rather than highly saturated, it usually reads more evenly than stronger violets, but the final result still depends on substrate color, surface texture, and finish. Darker or uneven surfaces can show through more readily on lighter paint, so proper prep and primer can matter if you want the color to stay clear. Sheen changes can also make the gray or lilac side of the color appear stronger.

Use the sheen for the job, not just the color name. ICI 1604 Little Lilac identifies the color target, but the gloss level changes how the matched paint looks on the finished item. Lower sheens usually hide small surface flaws better and reduce reflection, while higher sheens can be easier to clean but may show more texture and application marks.
If you are ordering a match of 1604 Little Lilac, confirm the sheen before checkout so the product fits the surface and use case you are painting.
No. Custom-made color matches are made to order, so a match of ICI 1604 Little Lilac should be selected carefully before you buy. Confirm the brand color reference, product type, sheen, and quantity first, because the finished item is custom matched for your order.

Coverage depends on the surface size, texture, hiding power, application method, and how many coats are needed. A typical can of spray paint covers about 20 square feet with one coat. Other paints typically cover between 400 and 600 square feet, but real coverage can be lower on rough, porous, or dark substrates.
For a match of ICI 1604 Little Lilac, plan extra material if you are coating a textured surface, changing from a much darker color, or expecting more than one coat.
Confirm ICI 1604 Little Lilac from a physical swatch or a known existing color reference from ICI rather than from screen viewing alone. MyPerfectColor matches to the original brand color standard, so the color should be verified before you place the order.
This is especially important if the item you are coating needs to coordinate with an existing painted surface or another part already finished in 1604 Little Lilac.

While MyPerfectColor can provide paint matched to the ICI 1604 Little Lilac, 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.
