A match of Ralph Lauren VM147 Blue Leather reads as a deep, muted blue-gray with a cool lean and very low chroma. The blue note is present, but the color stays restrained and slightly softened rather than bright or saturated.
MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to this color can be used on vents, switch covers, speaker grilles, brackets, railings, mailboxes, shutters, and hardware when a darker coordinated finish is needed on small parts. It can also work on frames, shelving, appliance panels, PVC, and furniture accents where spray application is more practical than brushing.
Because the color is relatively dark, surface prep and finish choice matter. Brush marks, sanding scratches, and uneven sheen can show more readily in a deep color like this, and darker or patchy substrates may need extra attention for even coverage. Finish and film build can also shift how blue or gray the color reads once it dries.

About Ralph Lauren Paint Colors
MyPerfectColor matches all Ralph Lauren colors in spray paint, touch-up paint, pints, gallons, and more.
For many years, Ralph Lauren offered paint and color collections through partnerships with paint manufacturers and sold these through various home centers. A few years ago, Ralph Lauren decided to stop selling paint and as a result, it is no longer available to purchase, and thus for many people, these are simply discontinued paint colors.
But you are not out of luck. You can find Ralph Lauren VM147 Blue Leather at MyPerfectColor, of course! MyPerfectColor uses its expert capabilities to recreate the original Ralph Lauren color by matching the original Ralph Lauren color books and swatches. MyPerfectColor does not use Ralph Lauren paint as it is no longer available. MyPerfectColor matches Ralph Lauren VM147 Blue Leather based on Ralph Lauren's color publications. The colors shown on this website are computer video simulations of the Ralph Lauren Color and may not match Ralph Lauren Color standards.

Frequently Asked Questions About Match of Ralph Lauren™ VM147 Blue Leather *
Can I order VM147 Blue Leather as MyPerfectColor custom spray paint, and how do I choose the right finish?
Yes. You can order a match of VM147 Blue Leather in MyPerfectColor custom spray paint, but the finish you choose should be based on how the item will be used and how much sheen you want on the final surface.
Higher-gloss finishes usually reflect more light, clean more easily, and can make the same color read a little different than a flatter finish. Lower-sheen finishes reduce reflection, but they may show less wipe-clean durability. If you are coating an item that needs to look consistent with another painted surface, try to match the existing sheen as closely as possible.
How can lighting change the look of VM147 Blue Leather after I apply the matched paint?
Even after you choose a match of VM147 Blue Leather, the finished look can shift under different lighting. Natural light, warm indoor light, cool LED light, and shaded areas can all make the same applied color read differently.
Sheen, surface texture, and nearby colors also affect how VM147 Blue Leather appears after application. If the item will be seen in a specific location, check it there after it is painted so you can judge the result in the same lighting and viewing conditions the finished piece will have.
Will VM147 Blue Leather custom spray paint work on plastic, and do I need primer?
Plastics vary a lot, so a match of VM147 Blue Leather should always be tested on the actual plastic before you commit to the full project. MyPerfectColor spray paint sticks well to most plastics, but some plastic surfaces need extra prep to get reliable adhesion.
Use the MyPerfectColor primer for better adhesion when you are working on plastic or another difficult surface. Cleaning the part first and testing on the real material are the safest ways to avoid adhesion problems.
What prep should I do before spraying VM147 Blue Leather on metal or over an existing coating?
Before applying a match of VM147 Blue Leather to metal or a previously coated surface, clean off dirt, grease, and other contamination. If the metal has rust or loose coating, remove what you can before painting.
Glossy or very smooth surfaces usually need scuffing so the new coating can bond better. The condition of the old coating, including its texture and wear, can also affect how VM147 Blue Leather looks after it dries, so test first when the existing surface is unknown or uneven.
What projects are a good fit for VM147 Blue Leather custom spray paint?
VM147 Blue Leather custom spray paint is useful for small or awkward items that are easier to coat with spray application than with a brush. Common examples include trim details, fixtures, railings, vents, pipes, hardware, accessories, and other removable parts.
If you need a repeatable match of VM147 Blue Leather on metal, plastic, wood, wicker, or a previously coated item, custom spray paint is often the practical choice. It is especially helpful when you want the color to coordinate with an existing painted environment and the part is easier to spray than to brush.
