A match of Ace D37-7 Coal Dust is a very dark charcoal with a muted blue-green undertone and very low chroma. It reads close to black, but the cool bias is still present, especially on smooth surfaces and in stronger light.
MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to the selected brand color can be used on vents, switch covers, speaker grilles, brackets, shelf supports, railings, mailbox parts, PVC trim pieces, hardware, and small furniture accents. It suits parts that need a dark, restrained finish without standing out from the surrounding surface.
Because this is a deep color, surface prep and finish selection matter. Gloss levels can make texture, edges, and substrate flaws more noticeable, while flatter sheens tend to soften the look. On plastic, metal, or previously coated parts, even film build helps the color read consistently, and thin spots may show more readily than they would in a lighter shade. If the part will sit outdoors, the final appearance can also shift with sun and weathering over time.

D37-7 Coal Dust matched by MyPerfectColor can look different once it is on the item because lighting, sheen, and nearby surfaces change how the eye reads the color. The same match can appear slightly darker in low light, flatter under soft light, or more reflective in a glossier finish.
If the part will sit beside an existing painted surface, the safest check is to judge the finished match on the actual substrate and in the actual location where it will be used.
The best finish for D37-7 Coal Dust depends on how the part will be used and how much reflection you want. Lower-sheen finishes reduce shine and can make the color read more muted, while higher-sheen finishes reflect more light and can make the same color look different on the finished item.
For ordering, think about cleanup, wear, and how the finish will interact with the surface and the surrounding area. The color reference is the same, but the sheen changes the final look.
Yes. MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to D37-7 Coal Dust is a practical option for switch covers, knobs, vents, speaker grilles, brackets, trim pieces, and similar small parts when you want a smooth sprayed finish.
This format is often useful when the goal is to coordinate removable items or smaller fixtures with a known brand color reference instead of repainting a larger surface.
For metal or a previously coated part, start by cleaning off dust, grease, wax, and any loose rust or chalking. A sound glossy surface usually benefits from scuffing so the new coating can grip better, and any failing paint or contamination should be removed before painting.
The condition of the old coating, including its gloss and texture, can change how D37-7 Coal Dust reads after application. If the part is high-visibility, a test on the actual surface is a good way to reduce surprises.
Before ordering D37-7 Coal Dust, confirm the brand reference, the MyPerfectColor product format, the sheen, and the quantity you need. MyPerfectColor makes a custom-matched paint to the selected brand color reference, not the original Ace paint line.
Because these are custom-made color matches, they should be ordered carefully. Custom color orders are not returnable or refundable.

While we can provide Ace D37-7 Coal Dust 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.
