A match of ICI 365 Sweetwood reads as a muted, medium-depth warm brown with tan and woodsy undertones. It sits closer to earthy brown than to a clean beige, with enough depth to feel grounded without becoming very dark.

MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to the selected brand color can be practical for vents, switch covers, speaker grilles, brackets, shelving supports, railings, mailbox parts, shutters, hardware, and other small painted components. It also fits PVC trim pieces, display fixtures, knobs, and removable accessories where a coordinated brown tone is needed on metal, plastic, wood, or previously coated surfaces after proper preparation.

Because the color is moderately deep and fairly muted, it usually reads most consistently when applied with steady film build and a properly prepared surface. Differences in substrate, texture, and finish can shift it slightly warmer or flatter, and darker or uneven bases may show through until enough coats are built. As with most custom-matched spray paint, sheen and application method can change the final look.

Frequently Asked Questions About Match of ICI™ 365 Sweetwood *

For ICI 365 Sweetwood, when can MyPerfectColor custom spray paint be handled and recoated?

For a match of ICI 365 Sweetwood in MyPerfectColor custom spray paint, dry-to-touch is typically within minutes. Recoat is usually about 1 to 2 hours later, and full cure is about 2 weeks.

If the part will be put back into service right away, do not treat dry-to-touch as fully cured. Wait longer before heavy handling, stacking, or cleaning so the coating can build enough strength.

Which finish should I order for a match of ICI 365 Sweetwood?

The right finish depends on how the item will be used, not just the color name. A lower sheen usually shows less reflectivity and can be more forgiving on textured or uneven surfaces, while a higher sheen is often chosen when easier cleaning or a tougher-looking finish matters more.

With ICI 365 Sweetwood, the color itself can read differently as sheen changes. If you need the best match to an existing item, confirm the finish you want before ordering MyPerfectColor paint matched to this color reference.

Where do I find the SDS for ICI 365 Sweetwood in MyPerfectColor paint?

The SDS is tied to the MyPerfectColor product and chemistry, not to the ICI 365 Sweetwood color name by itself. Check the Safety Data Sheet for the exact product format you plan to order.

If you are buying a match of ICI 365 Sweetwood, use the MyPerfectColor Safety Data Sheets page or the product page for that specific item to confirm the current SDS before use.

Can I return a custom match of ICI 365 Sweetwood after it is made?

Custom-made color matches are not returnable or refundable, so confirm the color reference, product type, sheen, and quantity before you place the order for ICI 365 Sweetwood.

If you are unsure about the format or finish, resolve that before checkout. Once MyPerfectColor makes a custom match of this color, it is treated as a custom order.

What prep is needed before spraying ICI 365 Sweetwood on metal or over an existing coating?

Before applying a match of ICI 365 Sweetwood, clean the surface first and remove dirt, oil, and other contamination. On metal, also address rust. On glossy or intact existing coatings, scuffing helps the new coating grip.

The condition of the old coating, texture, and gloss can change how the finished color reads. If the substrate is unknown or the old coating may not be compatible, test a small area first before painting the full part.

How do I find the same color as the ICI 365 Sweetwood in a different company?

While MyPerfectColor can provide paint matched to the ICI 365 Sweetwood, 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.
