A match of Kelly Moore AC93-N Dark Night is a very dark, cool blue-gray with low chroma and a subdued, slightly violet-leaning undertone. With an LRV of 4.46, it reads close to charcoal in most settings, but the blue component is still present rather than fully neutral black.
MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to the selected brand color can be used on vents, speaker grilles, switch covers, brackets, railings, shutters, mailboxes, hardware, and small fixture parts where a dark coordinated finish is needed. It is also a practical choice for metal, plastic, wood, or previously coated accessories that can be sprayed after proper preparation, especially when the goal is to carry the same dark reference across multiple pieces.
Because this is a very dark color, surface condition and sheen can remain noticeable once coated, and the final look can shift with finish and substrate. Coverage is usually straightforward on lighter surfaces, but uneven prep, patchy substrates, or thin film build can change how deep and uniform the color appears. A proper test coat and full surface prep are especially useful on glossy or textured parts.

Coverage depends on the size of the item, the surface texture, the hiding power needed, the application method, and how many coats you plan to apply. A typical can of spray paint covers about 20 square feet with one coat, while other paint formats typically cover about 400 to 600 square feet.
For AC93-N Dark Night, plan extra material if the surface is rough, porous, dark, or uneven, or if you expect to apply more than one coat. Measure the actual parts you are coating and add a small allowance so you do not run short before the project is finished.
The SDS is tied to the specific MyPerfectColor product and chemistry, not to the AC93-N Dark Night color name by itself. If you are ordering MyPerfectColor paint matched to AC93-N Dark Night, use the SDS for the exact product format you are buying.
If you switch between product types, such as spray paint and another MyPerfectColor format, check the SDS for that version because the documents can differ. MyPerfectColor Safety Data Sheets are found on the MyPerfectColor Safety Data Sheets page.
For spray paint, dry-to-touch is usually within minutes, recoating is typically done in 1 to 2 hours, and full cure takes about 2 weeks. Those are different stages, so a coat can feel dry before it is ready for full handling or final wear.
If you are coating AC93-N Dark Night on a part that will be assembled, stacked, or handled soon after painting, give it enough time between coats and before use. Drying time can vary with film thickness, temperature, humidity, and the surface you are painting.
No. The same AC93-N Dark Night color match can read differently in matte versus gloss because the finish changes light reflection and the perceived depth of the coating.
If the finished item will sit next to another painted part, do not rely on the color code alone. The finish level is part of the final appearance, so a finish change can make the same AC93-N Dark Night match look noticeably different after application.
Choose the finish based on how the part will be used, how much cleaning it needs, and how reflective you want the finished surface to be. Lower sheen usually reduces glare and can be less revealing of surface irregularities, while higher sheen is typically easier to wipe clean and can show more reflection.
For AC93-N Dark Night, the finish you order will change how the color reads on the completed item. If you are matching an existing painted surface, try to keep the finish level consistent as well as the color reference.

While we can provide Kelly Moore AC93-N Dark Night 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.
