A match of Behr UL230-1 Starless Night reads as a deep, cool blue-gray with a muted, low-chroma character. It sits in the darker range and has a slight blue-violet lean, so it does not read as a bright navy or a flat charcoal.

MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to the selected brand color can be used on vents, switch plates, speaker grilles, railings, brackets, mailbox parts, shutters, and other small metal or plastic components where a dark, restrained blue-gray is useful. It also works well for shelves, frames, hardware, and fixture accents that need a consistent sprayed finish on a compact surface.

Because this is a very dark color, surface prep and substrate color matter. Lighter or uneven surfaces can show through more easily until coverage builds, and gloss level, film thickness, and the underlying material can change how blue or gray the color appears. Dark finishes can also make surface texture and sheen variation more noticeable, so even application helps keep the result uniform.

Frequently Asked Questions About Match of Behr™ UL230-1 Starless Night *

How much MyPerfectColor paint matched to Behr UL230-1 Starless Night do I need for my project?

Coverage depends on the size of the part, the surface texture, how well the coating hides, the application method, and how many coats you need. A typical can of spray paint covers about 20 square feet with one coat. Other paints typically cover between 400 and 600 square feet.

If you are painting a textured, porous, or darker surface, plan for extra material so you do not run short before the finish looks even.

Can I apply Behr UL230-1 Starless Night over metal or an existing coating?

Yes, but surface prep matters. Clean the metal or old coating first, remove rust, dust, grease, and other contamination, and scuff smooth or glossy areas so the new coating can bond better.

The condition of the existing coating affects the result. If the old finish is failing, peeling, or badly uneven, it should be repaired or removed before painting. The gloss, texture, and wear of the old surface can also change how the new matched color reads after application.

Will Behr UL230-1 Starless Night look the same if I order it in a different finish?

No. The same color reference can look different in matte versus gloss because the finish changes how light reflects off the surface and how deep the color appears.

If you need the painted item to relate closely to nearby parts, keep the finish choice consistent with the surrounding surface. If you change finish, expect a visible shift even when the color match itself is correct.

Can MyPerfectColor spray paint matched to Behr UL230-1 Starless Night be used on plastic parts?

Plastics vary widely, so testing on the actual material is important before committing to the whole project. MyPerfectColor spray paint sticks well to most plastics, but using the MyPerfectColor primer for Acrylic Enamel can improve adhesion, especially on more difficult or low-energy plastics.

Clean the part first and check the result on the exact plastic you plan to paint, since different plastics can behave very differently.

What should I confirm before ordering Behr UL230-1 Starless Night as a custom MyPerfectColor match?

Before ordering, confirm the color reference, the MyPerfectColor product type you need, the sheen, and the quantity. Custom-made color matches are not returnable or refundable, so it is important to verify those details before you place the order.

If the part will sit next to an existing painted surface, make sure you are ordering the right match for that specific project and not assuming the old surface will look identical after repainting.
