A match of ICI Capitol Blue is a medium-dark blue with a cool, slightly gray cast and a restrained violet undertone. Its low LRV gives it a deeper, less reflective look rather than a bright or highly saturated one.
MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to this color is useful on vents, speaker grilles, switch covers, brackets, handrails, mailbox bodies, shutters, cabinet hardware, and other small metal, plastic, or wood parts where spray application can reach edges and recessed details. It can also be used on PVC pipe, access panels, frames, and fixture components when a coordinated blue is needed on a replacement or retrofit part.
Because this is a darker, cooler color, the final result can shift with sheen, film build, and substrate texture. Gloss or semi-gloss finishes tend to make the blue read deeper and can make surface flaws more noticeable, while flatter finishes soften that effect. Proper surface preparation and an even base help the color read consistently.

Yes. MyPerfectColor can make a custom-matched paint to match the selected ICI Capitol Blue 344220 reference. Before you order, confirm the exact brand color reference, choose the MyPerfectColor product format you need, select the sheen, and verify the quantity. Custom-made color orders are made to your selections and should be checked carefully before checkout because they are not returnable or refundable.
For metal or a previously coated part, clean off dirt, oil, wax, and other contamination, then scuff the surface so the new coating can grip. If you see rust, peeling paint, chalking, or a failing old coating, address that first. The gloss, texture, and condition of the existing surface can change how Capitol Blue 344220 looks after it is sprayed on top.
Spray paint matched to Capitol Blue 344220 is generally dry to the touch within minutes, can usually be recoated in 1 to 2 hours, and reaches full cure in about two weeks. Dry to touch, recoat, and full handling are different stages, so do not judge the job by touch alone if the part needs to go back into service soon.
The SDS is tied to the specific MyPerfectColor product or chemistry you are ordering, not to the Capitol Blue 344220 color name by itself. Check the SDS for the exact spray paint or other format before use. You can review MyPerfectColor Safety Data Sheets here: MyPerfectColor Safety Data Sheets.
Sheen affects more than appearance. It changes reflectivity, cleanup, durability, and how the matched color reads on the finished item. Before you order Capitol Blue 344220, confirm the sheen that best fits the part you are painting, since the same color can look different in flat, satin, or gloss finishes.
If you are coating a metal fixture, plastic cover, or other removable part, the sheen choice is part of getting the result you expect.

While MyPerfectColor can provide paint matched to the ICI Capitol Blue, 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.
