Step 1: Select Paint Type / Application

A match of ICI Rich Navy is a very deep blue with a cool undertone and a slight violet cast. With an LRV of 5.51 and modest chroma, it reads dark and restrained rather than bright, and it can lean toward blue-black in lower light or on matte surfaces.

MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to this brand color is a practical choice for small parts and components that need a dark navy finish. It can be used on vent covers, speaker grilles, switch plates, brackets, railings, mailbox parts, shutters, PVC trim pieces, shelf supports, hardware, frames, and other sprayable items where a consistent dark blue is needed across metal, plastic, wood, or previously coated surfaces after proper preparation.

Because the color is so dark, surface texture, prep quality, and sheen will have a noticeable effect on the result. A smoother substrate and even film build help the navy read cleanly, while gloss or semi-gloss finishes can make edges and imperfections stand out more than a flatter finish. On lighter or uneven substrates, thin coverage can show contrast sooner, so controlled coats are useful.

Frequently Asked Questions About Match of ICI™ Rich Navy *

Can I use MyPerfectColor paint matched to ICI Rich Navy on plastic parts, and do I need primer?

Plastic substrates vary a lot, so test MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to ICI Rich Navy on the actual part before painting the full item. Many plastics can be coated, but slick or specialty plastics may need extra prep to get dependable adhesion.

Using the MyPerfectColor primer for Acrylic Enamel can improve adhesion on difficult plastic surfaces. Clean the part, prep it as needed, and test first if the plastic type is unknown.

Which finish should I order for ICI Rich Navy from MyPerfectColor?

Choose the finish based on how the item will be used, not just the color name. With ICI Rich Navy, sheen changes how the matched color reads on the finished part, so a glossier finish will look more reflective and is often easier to clean, while a flatter finish will reflect less and can be more forgiving of surface marks.

If you are matching an existing painted item, try to match the existing sheen as closely as possible. If you are painting a new object, pick the finish that fits the wear and cleaning needs of that item.

Where do I find the SDS for MyPerfectColor paint matched to ICI Rich Navy?

The SDS is tied to the MyPerfectColor product and chemistry, not to the ICI Rich Navy color name alone. Check the MyPerfectColor Safety Data Sheets page for the exact product format you are ordering.

How do I find the same color as the ICI Rich Navy in a different company?

While MyPerfectColor can provide paint matched to the ICI Rich Navy, 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.

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.
