CHOOSING PAINT FILL COLOR TIPS

• For the best legibility, choose a color with the highest contrast to your switchplate color.

• For more subtle text, choose a color similar to the switchplate color.

• Choosing the same paint fill color as the switchplate color is not recommended. The text will not be very legible.

• White or almond paint fill are the best choices for brown plates.

• Grey and yellow work well on brown plates and are legible.

• Yellow, orange, and red are low contrast on brown plates and generally not recommended.

• Dark paint fill colors are to be avoided on brown plates.
