Match of Home Hardware™ 3282 Metro *

Finish changes how much light the coating reflects, so the same 3282 Metro match can look different on the finished part in matte, satin, or gloss. If the item will be viewed next to another coated surface, try to match the finish as closely as possible because sheen can change how the color reads after application.

MyPerfectColor is making a match of 3282 Metro in its own paint, so the finish you choose should fit the project and substrate, not just the color name.

Confirm 3282 Metro from a physical Home Hardware swatch, a labeled sample, or an existing painted part that you trust. Do not rely on a screen image alone, because device settings and lighting can change how the color appears.

Once you have verified the target, order the MyPerfectColor custom match to that brand color reference. MyPerfectColor matches the color standard you confirm, not the original Home Hardware paint product.

The Safety Data Sheet is tied to the MyPerfectColor product, not to the 3282 Metro color name by itself. Use the MyPerfectColor Safety Data Sheets page at https://www.myperfectcolor.com/Safety-Data-Sheets/33970.htm to find the SDS for the paint product you plan to order.

If you are comparing formats, check the SDS for the exact product before placing the order.

Use light, even coats, keep a consistent spray distance, and overlap passes so the film builds uniformly. Heavy coats can cause runs, uneven sheen, or make the 3282 Metro match read differently as it dries.

For small parts, vents, trim pieces, or hardware, test your technique on a spare piece first so you can confirm coverage and appearance before coating the final item.

Confirm the exact target color reference, the MyPerfectColor product format, the finish, and the quantity before you place the order. Custom-made color matches are not returnable or refundable, so it is important to verify that 3282 Metro is the right Home Hardware color and that you are choosing the correct product for the substrate and project.

If you are unsure about the reference, resolve that before ordering rather than after the paint is made.

MyPerfectColor has an original sample of the Home Hardware 3282 Metro 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.

MyPerfectColor offers custom spray paint matched to Home Hardware 3282 Metro which enables you to conveniently achieve a professional spray-smooth finish. It is difficult to gauge spray paint coverage because it depends on how you apply it and the amount of overspray, but generally the 11oz spray will cover about 20 square feet per coat.

MyPerfectColor uses an acrylic enamel which is a fast-drying durable coating suitable for interior or exterior use. This paint sticks well to most surfaces including metal, plastics, powder-coatings, cabinets and primed or previously painted wood.

While MyPerfectColor can provide paint matched to the Home Hardware 3282 Metro, 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.
