Match of Dulux™ Violet Vapor *

Yes. MyPerfectColor can supply a custom spray paint matched to Dulux Violet Vapor 44807 for smaller objects and accessories where spray application is practical. This is a match of Violet Vapor, not Dulux's original paint product.

That makes it a good option for baskets, frames, shelving, brackets, and similar items when you want the part itself coordinated to the selected color reference.

Finish changes how Dulux Violet Vapor 44807 reads after it is applied. A glossier finish reflects more light and can make the same color look different on the finished item, while a flatter finish reduces reflection and can soften the appearance.

The color code does not define sheen, so if you are matching an existing painted part, try to choose a finish that is close to the surface you are coating. MyPerfectColor is supplying the color match, but the final look still depends on the coating finish and the substrate.

For a MyPerfectColor spray paint match of Dulux Violet Vapor 44807, use light, even coats instead of one heavy coat. Keep the can moving, overlap each pass slightly, and build the color gradually so the finish stays even and you reduce the risk of runs or thick spots.

If the surface still shows through after the first coat, continue with additional light coats rather than trying to cover it all at once. A test spray on a similar surface can help you confirm how the color and sheen will build before you commit to the full project.

Plastics vary, so it is a good idea to test Dulux Violet Vapor 44807 on the actual plastic before painting the whole part. MyPerfectColor spray paint sticks well to most plastics, but some low-energy plastics need better prep to improve adhesion.

Using the MyPerfectColor primer can help with adhesion on difficult plastics. Clean the surface first, prep it as needed, and test a hidden area if the part is important or the plastic type is unknown.

A typical can of spray paint covers about 20 square feet with one coat, but the actual amount you need for Dulux Violet Vapor 44807 depends on the size of the part, the surface texture, how well the substrate hides, and how many coats you plan to apply.

If you are coating a rough, porous, or dark surface, plan for more paint because coverage can drop and you may need extra coats to get an even result. Other MyPerfectColor paint formats typically cover about 400 to 600 square feet per gallon, but spray projects should be planned using spray coverage, not gallon coverage.

MyPerfectColor has an original sample of the Dulux Violet Vapor in its color archive. This enables us to make paint and verify that it matches the original.

Please note that if your material is not new then the paint may not work for touch up as your material has aged and is likely different than it was when new. Learn more about our color matching accuracy. If you need a touch up application, send us a part and we can create a touch up solution precisely matching the current color and sheen of your specific materials.

MyPerfectColor offers custom spray paint matched to Dulux Violet Vapor which enables you to conveniently achieve a professional spray-smooth finish. It is difficult to gauge spray paint coverage because it depends on how you apply it and the amount of overspray, but generally the 11oz spray will cover about 20 square feet per coat.

MyPerfectColor uses an acrylic enamel which is a fast-drying durable coating suitable for interior or exterior use. This paint sticks well to most surfaces including metal, plastics, powder-coatings, cabinets and primed or previously painted wood.

While MyPerfectColor can provide paint matched to the Dulux Violet Vapor, 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.
