Salem Night is a very dark, muted plum with a brown-gray base and a slight cool violet lean. With a low LRV, it will read close to black at a distance, but the red-purple undertone can still show in direct light or on smoother surfaces.
MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to this color is useful for small parts that need a deep, subdued finish, such as vents, speaker grilles, switch plates, brackets, railings, hardware, shelf supports, mailbox parts, and trim pieces. It also works for removable accessories or fitted components where a dark, understated match is needed on metal, plastic, wood, or previously coated surfaces after proper preparation.
Because the color is so dark, surface prep and finish consistency matter. Gloss level, texture, and film build can change how much of the plum undertone is visible, and thin coverage over a light base may show contrast on edges or high spots. Evenly built coats help keep the color reading uniform.

Finish is a separate ordering choice from the color match. With 3CA28-1 Salem Night, a higher-sheen finish reflects more light and can make the same matched color read a little brighter or sharper, while a lower-sheen finish absorbs more light and can make it read softer or darker. If you are coating a part that must coordinate with an existing painted surface, try to match both the color reference and the sheen as closely as possible.
Clean the surface first so dirt, grease, rust, and chalky residue do not interfere with adhesion. Remove any loose paint or failing coating, and scuff glossy or intact coatings so the new paint has something to grip. If the old coating is damaged, contaminated, or peeling, repair or remove it before painting. The condition and texture of the existing coating can change how 3CA28-1 Salem Night looks after application, so test on the actual part when the appearance match matters.
Yes. MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to 3CA28-1 Salem Night is often a practical option for small or awkward parts such as trim details, fixtures, railings, vents, pipes, hardware, accessories, and removable components. It is especially useful when brushing would be slow or uneven, or when you want the part to coordinate with an existing painted item using the same color reference.
For spray paint matched to 3CA28-1 Salem Night, dry-to-touch time is typically within minutes, recoating is usually done in 1-2 hours, and full cure is about two weeks. Those are different stages, so a coat that feels dry may still need more time before heavy handling or service.
Plastics vary widely, so it is important to test 3CA28-1 Salem Night on the actual material before coating the full part. MyPerfectColor spray paint can adhere well to many plastics, but using the MyPerfectColor primer for Acrylic Enamel can improve adhesion and reduce the risk of failure on difficult surfaces. Cleaning the plastic before priming and painting also helps the finish perform better.

While MyPerfectColor can provide paint matched to the Ameritone Devoe 3CA28-1 Salem Night, 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.
