A match of Valspar H80-3B Wave Blue is a medium cool blue with moderate saturation and a slight blue-green cast. It reads as a clear, active blue rather than a muted gray-blue, and the finish you choose can shift it from slightly softer to more vivid.
MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to the selected brand color is useful on vents, speaker grilles, switch plates, mailboxes, railings, brackets, shelving supports, cabinet hardware, and other small parts where a repeatable blue finish matters. It can also be used on PVC trim pieces, equipment covers, display components, and removable fixtures that need a consistent color across metal, plastic, or previously coated surfaces.
Because this color has moderate chroma, it may take more than one coat for even coverage, especially over dark, uneven, or porous substrates. Surface prep, film build, and sheen all affect how deep or bright it reads, so the final appearance can shift with the substrate and application method.

Before ordering a custom match of H80-3B Wave Blue, confirm the brand color reference, the MyPerfectColor product type, the sheen, and the quantity you need. Custom-made color matches are made to order, so they should be selected carefully. If the order is based on the wrong reference or the wrong format, it can lead to a mismatch for your project.
MyPerfectColor is supplying its own paint matched to the selected Valspar color reference, not the original brand's paint.
Confirm H80-3B Wave Blue from a physical swatch or a known existing color reference from Valspar, not from screen viewing alone. Digital displays can shift the look of the color, so the safest way to order is to verify the actual target color first.
MyPerfectColor uses that verified brand color reference to make a custom match of H80-3B Wave Blue in its own paint product.
The Safety Data Sheet depends on the MyPerfectColor paint product or chemistry, not on the H80-3B Wave Blue color name alone. For the SDS, use the MyPerfectColor Safety Data Sheets page here: https://www.myperfectcolor.com/Safety-Data-Sheets/33970.htm.
If you are comparing formats, make sure the SDS matches the exact MyPerfectColor product you plan to order in the H80-3B Wave Blue match.
For H80-3B Wave Blue, clean the surface first, remove grease or residue, and lightly scuff where appropriate so the coating can bond better. Mask off areas you do not want coated and test the product on the actual surface before doing the full application.
This is especially helpful on metal, plastic, wood, or previously coated parts where prep can affect adhesion and how the match looks after it dries.
Even when the color match is correct, H80-3B Wave Blue can read differently once it is applied because lighting, placement, sheen, texture, and nearby surfaces all affect appearance. A match that looks right in one setting may appear slightly different on the finished item or next to an older painted surface.
If the part will be viewed up close or beside an existing finish, test the match on that actual item and check it in the lighting where it will be used.

While we can provide Valspar H80-3B Wave Blue in paint, we don't provide any crossover information. We've found that every paint company offers its own unique selection of colors and rarely does a color have an exact equivalent in another brand.
However, under the color image on a color page there is a link that says "Explore Colors". Clicking this link displays colors with similar values and you can look for any colors from the brand 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.
