A match of Behr M500-7 Very Navy is a very deep navy with a cool cast and a slight blue-green undertone. With an LRV of 4.47, it reads close to black in dimmer conditions, but it still holds enough blue to stay recognizable as navy rather than a neutral dark.

MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to Behr M500-7 Very Navy is well suited to small parts and surface details where a dark blue finish is needed. It can be used on metal railings, brackets, vent covers, speaker grilles, switch plates, mailbox hardware, shelving supports, shutters, and furniture legs or trim pieces. It also works for visible utility items such as PVC pipe, conduit, and other fixtures when you want them to coordinate without standing out.

Because this is a dark color, surface condition and finish consistency matter. Scratches, sanding marks, and uneven gloss can show more clearly than they would in a lighter color, and the look can shift as coats build and the film levels. On darker or contrasting substrates, careful prep and even coverage help the color read cleanly and maintain its depth.

Frequently Asked Questions About Match of Behr™ M500-7 Very Navy *

Should I choose flat, satin, or gloss for M500-7 Very Navy by Behr when ordering MyPerfectColor paint?

The finish is a separate choice from the color match. For M500-7 Very Navy, higher gloss levels usually look more reflective and are easier to wipe clean, while flatter finishes hide surface flaws better and look less reflective. Because gloss changes how the color reads on the finished item, try to match the sheen to the existing surface if you are coating a part that has to coordinate with something already painted.

If you are ordering MyPerfectColor paint matched to M500-7 Very Navy, pick the finish based on the item, the amount of handling, and how closely the new coating needs to blend with nearby surfaces.
