A match of Ralph Lauren VM136 True Blue is a deep, cool blue with a slight teal undertone and moderate chroma. It reads as a muted blue rather than a bright, saturated one, and the low LRV gives it a darker, more grounded appearance when sprayed.

MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to the selected brand color can be used on vents, switch plates, speaker grilles, railings, brackets, mailboxes, hardware, frames, and other small parts where a darker blue finish is needed. It also works for PVC trim pieces, removable fixtures, and shop or utility accessories when a repeatable color match matters.

Because this is a deeper color, the final look can shift with substrate color, texture, and sheen. Smooth surfaces usually show the blue more clearly, while rough or glossy-underneath parts can make the finish read a little lighter or darker in different areas. Over a contrasting base, additional coats may be needed for even coverage.

Frequently Asked Questions About Match of Ralph Lauren™ VM136 True Blue *

How do I choose a sheen for Ralph Lauren VM136 True Blue when ordering MyPerfectColor paint?

The sheen you choose changes how Ralph Lauren VM136 True Blue will look and perform on the finished item. Lower sheens reduce reflectivity and usually hide minor surface issues better, while higher sheens are easier to clean and can feel more durable in some applications. Because the sheen affects the appearance of the matched color, pick the finish based on the item you are painting and the look you need, not on the color code alone.

If you are coating a part that already has a specific finish, try to order a sheen that fits the project so the matched color reads as intended on the final surface.

What should I confirm before ordering Ralph Lauren VM136 True Blue as a custom MyPerfectColor match?

Before ordering Ralph Lauren VM136 True Blue, confirm the exact color reference, the MyPerfectColor product type, the sheen, and the quantity you need. MyPerfectColor makes a custom match to the selected brand color reference, so the order should be checked carefully before you submit it.

Custom-made color matches are not returnable or refundable, so it is important to verify the target color and product details first.

Can Ralph Lauren VM136 True Blue be ordered in spray paint for baskets, frames, or decor pieces?

Yes. A match of Ralph Lauren VM136 True Blue can be ordered as MyPerfectColor custom spray paint for projects like baskets, frames, shelving, furniture accents, hardware, and other accessories where spray application is practical. It is a good option when you want a removable part or small object to coordinate with a known paint color.

This type of order is especially useful for metal, plastic, wood, wicker, and previously coated items, as long as the surface is properly prepared for painting.

How much Ralph Lauren VM136 True Blue paint do I need for my project?

Other MyPerfectColor paints typically cover between 400 and 600 square feet, depending on the product and the surface.

How do I confirm Ralph Lauren VM136 True Blue is the right color before I order?

Confirm Ralph Lauren VM136 True Blue from a physical swatch from the original brand or from a known existing color reference, not from a screen alone.

While we can provide Ralph Lauren VM136 True Blue in paint, we don't provide any crossover information. We've found that every paint company offers its own unique selection of colors and rarely does a color have an exact equivalent in another brand.

However, under the color image on a color page there is a link that says "Explore Colors". Clicking this link displays colors with similar values and you can look for any colors from the brand you want.

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.
