Finish Matching: Stain and Paint Matches for IKEA Cabinets

Many have wanted to add new/additional moulding to their cabinets or to touch up dings or dents in cabinet boxes or doors. It's possible to do it! Here are the known matches:

Known Matches:

Adel White:
Olympic High Gloss White 76003 (also Base-2), 101-+1, 114-2. 116-0+2 Quart

Stat/Applad/Lidingo White: Benjamin Moore "Simply White"

Tidaholm: White oak very lightly rubbed with dilute ammonia, then given two coats of Varathane satin floor finish



[BREAK=Adel Medium Brown]

Adel Medium Brown:
To Stain Pine Crown Moulding:
1 coat of prestain wood condition (brand not important)
4 coats ZAR Salem Maple #110 with 12-24 hour wait time in between. Use #0000 and a tack cloth in between coats once dry.
1 coat ZAR Interior Polyurethane in Clear Antique Flat

OR:
Behr Eurocolor Water-Based Wood Stain in European cherry

OR:
White Birch veneer edge banding with General Finishes' Gel Stain in Candlelite. Apply one generous coat -- one coat is too light, 2 coats are too dark. Excess wipes up easily.

OR: (Sherwin Williams Stain Formula - Use 3 coats for a good match)



[BREAK=Duvbo]
Duvbo:
Behr Premium Plus interior semi-gloss enamel base - Ultra Pure White #3050. Here's what the custom color label says:

Colorant OZ 48 96
AX PERM YELLOW 1 5 1
B LAMP BLACK 0 28 0
I BROWN OXIDE 0 28 0

OR:
Sherwin Williams colour match using their ProClassic paint - Semi Gloss - Custom colour. This is for a gallon and the base is Extra White. Formula below:

BAC Colorant oz 32 64 128

B1-Black - 16 - -
R2-Maroon - 2 - 1
Y3-Deep Gold - 35 - 1

The colour is indistinguishable from the original and using some floetrol in the formula and a mohair roller or foam brush I have been able to get a smooth - near factory finish result.

OR:
For Poplar: Pick best stock without streaks. Light cherry stain on untreated wood. Not water based type. Steel wool sanding. With modified chinese brush (cut thin and ragged) streak over water based paint color: ochre (craft supply store) using it very thin in wood grain pattern to match cabinets. Coat with golden oak (not water based) stain to complete.

[BREAK=Liljestad]

Liljestad:

Use Zinsser Primer-Sealer Stain Killer (all surface bond coat) Bulls Eye 1-2-3 product #02012 and then the paint is Para Ultra Melamine Low Luster (Only available in Canada, see below for US recommendations) - Urethane Fortified Enamel, 4505 Neutral Base, which can be tinted any colour you like. Custom colour is B-2Y24 C-1/2 F-42 KX-1/2. There is a V3 written off to the side.

In the US, use Benjamin Moore Impervo Waterborne Satin Impervo® Enamel (314) or consider using Muralo Waterborne Satin for a brushed finish.

Adel white paint match

Can someone clarify the paint match for Adel White? I've been to Lowes/Home Depot three times and come back with three different shades of white--none of them close. The paint guy (three different guys) looks at the formula that I give him (Known Matches: Adel White: Olympic High Gloss White 76003 (also Base-2), 101-+1, 114-2. 116-0+2 Quart) and doesn't understand it. Maybe someone who got a good match can read the numbers off of their can.
