A match of Valspar 1003-9A Cliveden Virginia Soil is a deep, muted brown with warm red-brown undertones and low chroma. It reads earthy rather than crisp, with a darker body and a subdued, grounded character.

MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to this color is well suited to vents, switch covers, railings, mailbox parts, speaker grilles, brackets, shelving supports, frames, and hardware where a darker brown needs to stay consistent across small parts or mixed materials. It can also be used on shutters, PVC details, and removable fixtures when a coordinated brown finish is needed on sprayable surfaces.

Because this is a dark, low-chroma color, it usually hides more easily than a vivid hue, but finish, film build, and substrate texture still affect the final read. Dark browns can make sanding marks, gloss differences, and surface flaws more visible, especially on metal and plastic. Over a lighter base, even coverage may take primer or additional coats depending on the part and prep work.

Frequently Asked Questions About Match of Valspar™ 1003-9A Cliveden Virginia Soil *

How should I confirm 1003-9A Cliveden Virginia Soil before ordering a MyPerfectColor match?

Confirm 1003-9A Cliveden Virginia Soil from a physical swatch or another known existing color reference from the original brand, not from a screen image alone. MyPerfectColor makes a custom match to the selected brand color reference, so the order is only as accurate as the reference you use to identify the target color.

If the only reference is an existing painted item that has aged, remember that wear, fading, and sheen changes can make it different from the original color standard.

Can 1003-9A Cliveden Virginia Soil be ordered as custom spray paint for switch covers, vents, and similar parts?

Yes. MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to 1003-9A Cliveden Virginia Soil is a practical option for small parts where a sprayed finish is easier than brushing, such as switch covers, knobs, vents, speaker grilles, brackets, trim pieces, and other removable hardware.

For best results, use the product on a properly prepared surface and choose the format that fits the part you are coating.

Do I need primer before applying 1003-9A Cliveden Virginia Soil custom spray paint?

Primer depends on the substrate, the condition of the surface, and the paint system you choose. A primer is not always required, but it usually does not hurt and can improve adhesion, especially on unfamiliar, glossy, damaged, or difficult surfaces.

Check the prep guidance for the selected product before ordering, and test first when you are coating plastic, metal, or another surface that may not take paint evenly without preparation.

What dry time should I expect for 1003-9A Cliveden Virginia Soil spray paint?

For spray paint matched to 1003-9A Cliveden Virginia Soil, dry-to-touch is typically within minutes, recoating is usually done in about 1 to 2 hours, and full cure is about two weeks.

Dry to touch, recoat, and fully cured are different stages, so avoid heavy handling, stacking, or installation until the coating has had time to harden fully.

How do I choose a sheen for 1003-9A Cliveden Virginia Soil when ordering MyPerfectColor paint?

Sheen affects durability, reflectivity, cleanup, and the way 1003-9A Cliveden Virginia Soil reads on the finished item. Lower sheen usually hides surface texture better, while higher sheen reflects more light and can make substrate details and application marks more visible.

If you are trying to coordinate with an existing part, match the sheen as closely as practical because the same color can look different across gloss levels.
