A match of Ace D45-7 Cannonball is a very dark charcoal with a cool, slightly blue-gray undertone. It reads close to black at a glance, but the low chroma keeps it muted rather than sharp or colorful.

MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to D45-7 Cannonball works well on small parts and hardware where a subdued dark finish is needed. It can be used on HVAC vents, speaker grilles, switch plates, brackets, railings, mailbox parts, shelf supports, frame edges, cabinet pulls, and other removable metal or plastic pieces that are practical to spray.

Because this color is so deep, surface prep and finish choice matter. Dark colors tend to show texture, sanding marks, and sheen differences more clearly, and lighter substrates may need more than one coat for even coverage. The final appearance can shift with gloss level, film build, and the material underneath.

Frequently Asked Questions About Match of Ace™ D45-7 Cannonball *

Where can I find the SDS for Ace D45-7 Cannonball from MyPerfectColor?

Can Ace D45-7 Cannonball be ordered in spray paint for baskets, frames, or decor pieces?

Yes. A match of Ace D45-7 Cannonball can be ordered as a MyPerfectColor custom spray paint match for projects like baskets, frames, shelving, furniture accents, decor pieces, and similar items where spray application is practical.

For best results, make sure the item is cleaned and prepared for paint, and choose a format that fits the substrate and the amount of handling the piece will get.

What should I confirm before ordering Ace D45-7 Cannonball as a custom MyPerfectColor match?

Before ordering Ace D45-7 Cannonball, confirm the exact brand color reference, the MyPerfectColor product type, the sheen, and the quantity you need. MyPerfectColor custom color matches are made to order, so they should be chosen carefully.

Once a custom color match is made, it is not returnable or refundable, so it is worth checking the reference and the product options before you place the order.

How does finish affect how Ace D45-7 Cannonball looks after it is applied?

Finish and sheen change how Ace D45-7 Cannonball reflects light, which changes the way the color reads on the finished item. The same matched color can look different on a matte, satin, or glossier coating because the surface reflects light differently.

That is why sheen is a practical ordering choice, not just a style choice. It should be selected based on the item, the surface, and the look of the surrounding coated parts.

How do I confirm Ace D45-7 Cannonball is the right color before I order?

Confirm Ace D45-7 Cannonball from a physical swatch, an existing painted sample, or another known reference from the original Ace color line. Do not rely on a screen image alone, since monitors and lighting can shift how the color appears.
