A match of Dunn Edwards DE 604 U1 Portridge reads as a medium-dark, cool blue with a slight violet cast and moderate chroma. It is not a bright, electric blue; the lower LRV gives it a deeper, more subdued presence, while the small green shift keeps the color from turning strongly purple.

MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to the selected Dunn Edwards color reference can be used on vents, switch covers, speaker grilles, brackets, railings, mailbox parts, shelving hardware, and other small metal or plastic pieces where a repeatable deep blue finish is needed. It can also be used on PVC trim, frames, fixture components, and furniture accents when you need to carry the same color onto removable or hard-to-brush parts.

Because this is a darker color, surface preparation and finish will influence how even it looks. Gloss and semi-gloss finishes can make substrate texture, sanding marks, and patchiness more noticeable, and the color may read deeper on rough or porous surfaces than on smooth ones. On lighter or uneven substrates, additional coats may be needed for uniform coverage, especially at edges, corners, and recessed details.

Frequently Asked Questions About Match of Dunn Edwards™ DE 604 U1 Portridge *

Will DE 604 U1 Portridge look the same in matte versus gloss when I order a MyPerfectColor match?

No. The same DE 604 U1 Portridge color match can read differently in matte, satin, semi-gloss, or gloss because the finish changes how much light reflects off the surface. A glossier finish usually looks deeper and more reflective, while a flatter finish reduces reflection and can make the color appear less vivid.

If you need the color to coordinate closely with another item, choose the finish based on the final surface, not just the color code.

Where do I find the SDS for DE 604 U1 Portridge from MyPerfectColor?

The SDS is tied to the MyPerfectColor product and its chemistry, not the DE 604 U1 Portridge color name alone. To review it, use the MyPerfectColor Safety Data Sheets page at https://www.myperfectcolor.com/Safety-Data-Sheets/33970.htm.

If you are ordering a different MyPerfectColor format or coating type, make sure you open the SDS for the exact product you plan to use.

How long does MyPerfectColor spray paint matched to DE 604 U1 Portridge take to dry and recoat?

For the spray paint format, expect it to be dry to the touch within minutes, ready for recoating in about 1 to 2 hours, and fully cured in about two weeks. Dry to touch, recoat, and full cure are different stages, so do not treat them as the same milestone.

If the part will be handled or assembled soon after painting, plan around the full cure time, not just the first dry-to-touch reading.

Which finish should I choose for DE 604 U1 Portridge in MyPerfectColor paint?

Choose the finish based on how the part will be used and how much reflectivity you want on the finished surface. Flatter finishes usually reduce shine, while glossier finishes are easier to clean and show more reflection, which can also make the color read differently.

If the item must coordinate with an existing painted surface, match the finish as closely as possible to reduce visible differences.

Can I paint plastic parts with DE 604 U1 Portridge MyPerfectColor spray paint?

Yes, but plastics vary a lot, so adhesion depends on the actual material and preparation. MyPerfectColor spray paint sticks well to most plastics, but testing on the exact substrate is the safest way to confirm performance before painting the full part.

Using the MyPerfectColor primer can help improve adhesion on difficult surfaces. The primer product is available at https://www.myperfectcolor.com/en/product/995031-Primer-for-Acrylic-Enamel/.
