A match of ICI 1282 Tundra Pond is a dark, cool blue-green with a noticeable gray cast. The low chroma keeps it subdued rather than bright, and the depth gives it a muted teal-gray character instead of a clear, vivid aqua.

MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to the selected brand color can be useful on small parts where a controlled finish matters, such as vents, switch plates, speaker grilles, brackets, shelf supports, railings, mailboxes, shutters, PVC trim pieces, tool housings, and hardware. The darker, quiet character also suits accessory parts that need to stay visually restrained while still matching a known color reference.

Because this is a dark, low-chroma color, sheen and substrate texture can affect how it reads. Even coverage and proper surface preparation matter, and uneven or lighter bases may show through before full film build is reached. On smooth parts, gloss differences and spray consistency can change the apparent depth of the color.

Frequently Asked Questions About Match of ICI™ 1282 Tundra Pond *

Should I choose a flat, satin, or gloss finish for 1282 Tundra Pond by ICI?

A match of ICI 1282 Tundra Pond is the color reference, but the sheen is a separate ordering choice. In MyPerfectColor paint matched to 1282 Tundra Pond, a flatter finish usually hides surface texture better, while a glossier finish reflects more light and is easier to clean.

Choose the sheen based on the part you are painting and how the finished item needs to perform. The same color can look different in each finish, so if the appearance is important on a visible part, make sure the sheen you order is the one you want.

How should I spray MyPerfectColor matched to 1282 Tundra Pond for the smoothest finish?

For MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to 1282 Tundra Pond, use light, even coats instead of one heavy coat. Keep the can moving, overlap passes slightly, and hold a consistent distance from the surface to help avoid runs, uneven sheen, and heavy buildup.

If the color is going over a darker or uneven surface, plan on multiple coats as needed for full coverage. Let each coat flash off before adding the next coat so the finish builds evenly.

Can I paint plastic parts with 1282 Tundra Pond by ICI, and should I use primer?

Plastics vary widely, so test first on the actual part if possible. MyPerfectColor spray paint sticks well to most plastics, but using the MyPerfectColor primer can improve adhesion on challenging plastic surfaces.

If you are coating a plastic item with MyPerfectColor paint matched to 1282 Tundra Pond, proper prep matters more than the color itself. Clean the surface well, confirm the plastic type if you can, and use primer when you want a better adhesion base before applying the color coat.
