Step 1: Select Paint Type / Application

A match of Martha Stewart 8309 Blue Corn reads as a muted blue with a noticeable gray cast, leaning cool rather than bright. The color has moderate depth, so it does not read pastel, but it is also not a deep navy. Its low chroma gives it a subdued, worked-in look rather than a vivid one.

MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to this color is well suited to small parts and finished components that need a controlled blue-gray. Common uses include HVAC vents, switch covers, speaker grilles, brackets, shelf supports, metal frames, railings, shutters, mailboxes, PVC trim pieces, hardware, and furniture accents where spray application is practical and a consistent color matters.

Because the color is relatively quiet rather than highly saturated, coverage is usually manageable, but the final read still depends on substrate color, texture, and sheen. On smooth surfaces it may appear cleaner and slightly lighter; on rough or glossy parts, the gray-blue character can shift as the light changes. As with any custom-matched spray paint, surface prep and film build affect the final result.

How do I confirm Martha Stewart 8309 Blue Corn before ordering a MyPerfectColor match?

Confirm Martha Stewart 8309 Blue Corn from a physical swatch or a known existing color reference, not from screen viewing alone.

This is especially important if you are matching to an existing item or a previously painted surface.

Where can I find the Safety Data Sheet for Martha Stewart 8309 Blue Corn?

How do I find the same color as the Martha Stewart 8309 Blue Corn in a different company?

While MyPerfectColor can provide paint matched to the Martha Stewart 8309 Blue Corn, we don't provide any crossover information because this is a subjective determination. Every paint company offers its own unique selection of colors and rarely does a color have an exact equivalent in another company's color collection, so determining which color is the best approximation is a judgement call.

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