Step 1: Select Paint Type / Application

A match of ICI 1020 New Grass is a medium-light yellow-green with a clear, active character. It sits closer to green than olive, with a noticeable yellow cast and enough chroma to read as a defined color rather than a softened neutral. The overall effect is clean, slightly earthy, and not especially dark.

MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to the selected brand color is useful for small parts and accessories that need that same green tone. It can be used on PVC pipe, vent covers, switch plates, mailboxes, brackets, shelving ends, railings, speaker grilles, hardware, frames, and other removable pieces where a sprayed finish is easier to control than brushing. The color also fits coordination work on shutters, utility covers, or fixture components when the goal is a repeatable match across different materials.

Because this color has moderate chroma, coverage can be more dependent on the substrate than a muted neutral, especially over darker or uneven surfaces. A uniform prep and an even film build help the yellow-green read consistently, while sheen and texture can make it appear a bit brighter or softer once sprayed. On exterior parts, stronger light may make the green cast look more active, so finish choice and surface condition can affect the final read.
