A match of Dunn Edwards DE5608 Irish Charm is a medium-dark, muted olive green with a cool-to-neutral lean and a soft yellow-green undertone. It reads as an earthy green rather than a clear or vivid one, with enough gray in it to look subdued and steady.

MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to the selected brand color reference can be useful on vents, switch covers, speaker grilles, railings, brackets, mailbox parts, shutters, PVC trim pieces, and hardware where a coordinated green is needed on small or awkward surfaces. It also suits frames, shelving, baskets, and equipment housings when a restrained green finish is easier to carry across different parts than a brighter accent color.

Because this color has moderate depth, coverage is usually manageable, but substrate color and surface texture still matter. Darker or uneven bases can need extra coats for uniform color, especially on edges, corners, and textured plastics. Finish and film build can also change the reading of the color, since smoother or glossier surfaces tend to make the green look a little deeper and more defined.

Frequently Asked Questions About Match of Dunn Edwards™ DE5608 Irish Charm *

What finish should I choose for a custom match of DE5608 Irish Charm by Dunn Edwards?

MyPerfectColor can make a match of Dunn Edwards DE5608 Irish Charm in the finish you choose, but the sheen should be based on how the item will be used, cleaned, and viewed. Lower sheen finishes usually reduce reflectivity and can be easier to live with on parts that will be handled often, while higher sheen finishes reflect more light and can make surface texture or application marks more noticeable.

If the part needs frequent cleaning or a more durable look, choose the finish that fits that use case before you order. The same DE5608 Irish Charm color can appear different in different sheens, so finish is part of the ordering decision, not just the color name.

How long does a spray paint match of DE5608 Irish Charm need before recoating or handling?

For a spray paint match of DE5608 Irish Charm, dry to touch is usually reached within minutes, but that does not mean the coating is ready for recoat or full handling. A practical rule is to allow about 1 to 2 hours before recoating and about two weeks for full cure.

If the part will be stacked, installed, or put back into service, plan around cure time rather than just dry-to-touch time. That helps reduce scuffing, imprinting, and finish damage on your MyPerfectColor match of the selected Dunn Edwards color.

Why can a match of DE5608 Irish Charm look different after it is sprayed on the final part?

Even when MyPerfectColor makes a correct match of DE5608 Irish Charm, the finished look can still change once it is applied. Lighting, viewing angle, sheen, nearby surfaces, and the substrate itself can all affect how the color reads on the part.

If the item will sit beside an existing painted surface, check it in the same lighting and placement where it will actually be used. That is the best way to judge whether the applied match of Dunn Edwards DE5608 Irish Charm meets your project needs.

Can I return a custom-made match of DE5608 Irish Charm if I order the wrong product or sheen?

Custom-made color orders, including a match of Dunn Edwards DE5608 Irish Charm, should be confirmed carefully before you place them because they are made to order and are not returnable or refundable.

Before ordering, verify the color reference, the MyPerfectColor product format, the sheen, and the quantity you need. If you are choosing between spray paint and another format, make that decision up front so you get the right version of DE5608 Irish Charm the first time.

Do I need primer before applying a match of DE5608 Irish Charm?

As a general rule, primer never hurts and can only help, especially on bare, slick, patched, or difficult surfaces. Check the prep guidance for the specific MyPerfectColor product you are ordering so you know whether primer is recommended for your Dunn Edwards DE5608 Irish Charm project.
