Step 1: Select Paint Type / Application

A match of Dunn Edwards DE 602 M2 Sterling Blue is a cool blue in a medium-dark range, with a slight violet lean rather than a green one. It reads as controlled and somewhat muted, with enough chroma to stay clearly blue without turning bright or electric.

MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to the selected brand color is practical for parts that need a consistent sprayed finish in this blue: HVAC vents, switch covers, speaker grilles, railings, mailbox bodies, hardware, small frames, shelving brackets, access panels, and PVC trim pieces. It can also be useful for removable fixtures, appliance panels, and other small components where brushing would leave visible marks or texture.

Because this color has moderate depth, substrate color and surface prep can affect how even it looks. Over darker or uneven material, coverage may take extra coats, and gloss level can change whether the blue reads softer or richer. On metal and plastic parts, a clean primer and controlled film build can help the finished color stay consistent across edges, corners, and textured areas.

Frequently Asked Questions About Match of Dunn Edwards™ DE 602 M2 Sterling Blue *

How much MyPerfectColor spray paint matched to DE 602 M2 Sterling Blue do I need for my project?

Coverage depends on the size of the item, the surface texture, how well the substrate hides the previous color, the spray method, and how many coats you need. For MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to DE 602 M2 Sterling Blue, a typical can covers about 20 square feet with one coat. If you are ordering another paint format, coverage is often about 400 to 600 square feet, but the exact amount still depends on the project and the surface.

If you are covering a rough, porous, or dark surface, plan for extra material so you do not run short before the item is fully coated.

Can I use MyPerfectColor spray paint matched to DE 602 M2 Sterling Blue on plastic parts?

Yes, MyPerfectColor spray paint matched to DE 602 M2 Sterling Blue can be used on many plastic items, but plastics vary a lot and the surface may need different prep or primer depending on the material. It is best to test on the actual plastic first so you can confirm adhesion and appearance before coating the full part.

If you want better adhesion, use the MyPerfectColor primer before applying the color coat. That is especially helpful on challenging or low-energy plastic surfaces.

What should I confirm before ordering a custom match of DE 602 M2 Sterling Blue?

Before ordering a custom match of DE 602 M2 Sterling Blue, confirm the brand color reference, the MyPerfectColor product type, the sheen, and the quantity you need. MyPerfectColor is making its own paint matched to that color reference, not selling the original Dunn Edwards paint product.

Custom-made color matches should be chosen carefully because they are not returnable or refundable. If the item will be installed beside an existing painted surface, it is worth double-checking the reference before you place the order.

What kinds of projects work well with MyPerfectColor spray paint matched to DE 602 M2 Sterling Blue?

MyPerfectColor spray paint matched to DE 602 M2 Sterling Blue is practical for small parts and accessories such as baskets, frames, shelving, brackets, knobs, hardware, furniture accents, decor pieces, and similar items. It is also useful when you want removable or hard-to-brush parts to coordinate with a known paint color.

This format is often chosen for projects where a clean spray application is easier than brushing, and where the goal is to match a specific brand color on the object itself.
