Match of Valspar™ 7001-3 Soft Stone *

Yes. MyPerfectColor can make a custom spray paint match of Valspar 7001-3 Soft Stone for parts where spray application is practical, such as trim details, vents, hardware, pipes, railings, fixtures, and other small or awkward items.

This is often the better choice when a brush would be inefficient or leave visible marks. Make sure the item is properly cleaned and prepared before spraying so the finish has a fair chance to read as the selected color match.

Once a match of Valspar 7001-3 Soft Stone is applied, the finished look can shift with lighting, placement, sheen, and the colors or materials around it. A match that looks right indoors can read a little differently in bright daylight or beside another painted surface.

If the part will sit next to an existing surface, or if the project is high visibility, it is best to expect some visual change from the environment even when the color match itself is correct. The surrounding surface, texture, and finish all affect how the color is perceived on the final item.

Coverage depends on the size of the surface, its texture, how well it hides, the application method, and how many coats are needed. A typical can of spray paint covers about 20 square feet with one coat.

If you are coating a rough, porous, or darker surface, plan for more material than you would need on a smooth surface. For larger projects, other MyPerfectColor paint formats typically cover between 400 and 600 square feet, but the right choice depends on the item and the application method.

For spray paint matched to Valspar 7001-3 Soft Stone, dry-to-touch, recoat, and full cure are different stages. Spray paint is usually dry to touch within minutes, can be recoated in one to two hours, and is fully cured in about two weeks.

If you need to handle the part sooner, be careful not to treat dry-to-touch as fully cured. The coating may feel dry long before it has reached its final hardness and durability.

The best finish depends on how the part will be used and how you want the matched color to read on the item. Sheen affects durability, reflectivity, cleanup, and how the color appears after it is applied.

If the piece will be handled often or cleaned regularly, a more durable finish may be the better ordering choice. If appearance matching is more important than reflectivity, keep in mind that higher gloss levels can make the same color look different than a flatter finish.

MyPerfectColor uses an acrylic enamel which is a fast-drying durable coating suitable for interior or exterior use.

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.
