Match of ICI™ 980 Pendulum *

Yes. MyPerfectColor can make a match of ICI 980 Pendulum in custom spray paint for small parts and hardware where a smooth sprayed finish is useful. That format is often a practical choice for switch covers, vents, speaker grilles, trim pieces, knobs, and similar items.

For the best result, make sure the part is clean, properly prepared, and sprayed in light coats. The code identifies the target color, but it does not change how the surface should be prepped or how the coating will behave on the item you are painting.

MyPerfectColor spray paint matched to ICI 980 Pendulum can be used on many plastic parts, but plastics vary a lot. That means adhesion can depend on the exact material, its surface energy, and how well it is prepared.

Testing on the actual plastic is the safest approach. Using the MyPerfectColor primer for acrylic enamel can help improve adhesion on difficult plastic surfaces before you apply the color coats.

Before ordering ICI 980 Pendulum, confirm the exact brand color reference, the product format you need, the sheen, and the quantity. MyPerfectColor is making its own paint matched to the selected brand color reference, not selling the original brand's paint product.

Custom-made color matches are not returnable or refundable, so it is worth checking those details carefully before you place the order.

Not always. Even when the color match is correct, ICI 980 Pendulum can look different after application because of lighting, viewing angle, sheen, texture, and what it sits next to.

This matters most when the finished part will be installed beside an existing painted surface. A match that looks acceptable by itself can still read a little differently once it is on the actual object and seen in its final location.

Use light, even coats of MyPerfectColor spray paint matched to ICI 980 Pendulum instead of trying to cover in one heavy pass. Keep a consistent spray distance, overlap each pass evenly, and avoid flooding the surface.

Heavy coats can cause runs, uneven sheen, and a softer-looking color build. Let each coat dry according to the product directions before adding the next coat so the finish can level properly.

MyPerfectColor has an original sample of the ICI 980 Pendulum in its color archive. This enables us to make paint and verify that it matches the original.

Please note that if your material is not new then the paint may not work for touch up as your material has aged and is likely different than it was when new. Learn more about our color matching accuracy. If you need a touch up application, send us a part and we can create a touch up solution precisely matching the current color and sheen of your specific materials.

While MyPerfectColor can provide paint matched to the ICI 980 Pendulum, 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.
