Match of Dunn Edwards™ DE 864 L3 Adonis *

Coverage depends on the size of the item, surface texture, how well the substrate hides, your spray technique, and how many coats you need. As a planning guide, a typical can of spray paint covers about 20 square feet with one coat. If you are coating a larger or more textured item in DE 864 L3 Adonis, plan for extra material so you do not run short before you reach full coverage.

If you are comparing against other MyPerfectColor paint formats, many non-spray paints typically cover about 400 to 600 square feet per gallon, but the exact amount still depends on the job. For the safest order, estimate the total area, then add room for primer, test sprays, and any second coat needed for even color.

Plastic surfaces vary a lot, so it is best to test DE 864 L3 Adonis on the actual part before committing to the full project. MyPerfectColor spray paint sticks well to most plastics, but adhesion can improve with proper cleaning, light surface prep, and the MyPerfectColor primer for difficult substrates.

If the plastic is slick, flexible, or unknown, do a small test area first so you can confirm adhesion and appearance before painting the full item. That is especially important for removable parts, covers, trims, or accessories where you need the finish to hold up after handling.

Confirm DE 864 L3 Adonis from a physical swatch or a known existing color reference from Dunn Edwards, not from a screen image alone. Screen colors can shift with monitor settings, lighting, and camera processing, so they are not reliable enough for ordering a custom match.

MyPerfectColor makes a match to the selected original brand color reference, so the main decision is whether DE 864 L3 Adonis is the exact target you want. If you already have a labeled sample, saved chip, or verified existing reference, use that as the ordering standard.

A match of Dunn Edwards DE 864 L3 Adonis is matched to the selected color reference, but the finished look can still change with lighting, sheen, texture, placement, and nearby surfaces. A color that looks one way in a sample view can read differently once it is sprayed onto a real part.

If the new coating will sit next to an existing painted area, test the match on the actual object or on a nearby sample piece first. That is the safest way to judge how DE 864 L3 Adonis will read in the final location before you finish the full project.

A match of Dunn Edwards DE 864 L3 Adonis works well in MyPerfectColor custom spray paint for smaller items and parts where spray application is practical. Common uses include baskets, frames, shelving, furniture accents, decor pieces, hardware, and other removable components that need to coordinate to a known color reference.

It is also a practical choice for trim details, fixtures, covers, and accessory parts that need a repeatable match to the selected Dunn Edwards color. If the item is awkward to brush, custom spray paint is often the simplest way to get even coverage on the full surface.

MyPerfectColor uses an acrylic enamel which is a fast-drying durable coating suitable for interior or exterior use. MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to Dunn Edwards DE 864 L3 Adonis enables you to conveniently achieve a professional spray-smooth finish in any color in any sheen. It sticks well to most surfaces including metal, plastics, powder-coatings, cabinets and primed or previously painted wood.

The MyPerfectColor 11oz spray will cover about 20 square feet per coat. Keep in mind that it is difficult to gauge spray paint need as the coverage is highly dependent on how it is applied. Learn more about how spray paint works at MyPerfectColor.
