A match of ICI 300 Silk Ribbon is a very light, softly warmed off-white. It reads creamy rather than crisp, with a faint beige-yellow undertone and low chroma, so the color stays quiet instead of looking bright or stark. MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to the selected ICI color reference can carry that pale, muted character onto smaller parts and fixtures.
This shade is practical for spray-painted items that need to blend with light architectural finishes or older cream-toned components. It can be used on vent covers, switch plates, speaker grilles, outlet covers, cabinet pulls, brackets, picture frames, mailboxes, shutters, PVC trim pieces, and other removable hardware where a smooth sprayed finish is useful. On metal, plastic, wood, and previously coated parts, it helps keep the piece in the same soft light range without reading as a clean white.
Because it is a very light color, coverage can be affected by the color and condition of the substrate beneath it. Darker or uneven surfaces may show through more easily and may need extra coats for consistent hide. Finish choice and film build can also change how warm or pale the color appears, so satin or glossier applications may read a little richer than flatter ones. If the part will sit beside an existing painted surface, surface age, sheen, and texture can still create a visible difference even when the color match is close.

No. The color reference stays 300 Silk Ribbon by ICI, but the finish can change how that match reads after application. Matte, satin, and gloss reflect light differently, so the same matched color can look lighter, deeper, or more noticeable depending on sheen and surface texture.
If you are coating a part that sits near an existing painted surface, try to match the original sheen as closely as possible. Finish differences can be enough to make the result look different even when the color match is correct.
For spray paint matched to 300 Silk Ribbon by ICI, dry-to-touch is typically within minutes, but that is not the same as being ready for recoating or full handling. A practical rule is to recoat in about 1 to 2 hours, then allow about two weeks for full cure.
Use more caution with handling, stacking, or installing the part before full cure. Dryness, recoat timing, and final cure are separate stages, and rushing them can affect the final finish.
Custom-made MyPerfectColor matches of 300 Silk Ribbon by ICI should be selected carefully because they are not returnable or refundable. Before ordering, confirm the brand color reference, the MyPerfectColor product type, the sheen, and the quantity you need.
If you are unsure about any of those details, verify them first. That helps reduce the risk of ordering a custom match that does not fit the project.
Confirm 300 Silk Ribbon by ICI from a physical swatch or a known existing reference, not from screen viewing alone. MyPerfectColor matches to the original brand color standard, so the target color should be verified before you place the order.
If the color came from an existing painted item, compare it against the original reference whenever possible. That is the best way to reduce approval risk before ordering a custom match.

While MyPerfectColor can provide paint matched to the ICI 300 Silk Ribbon, 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.
