A match of Dunn Edwards DEC792 Cape Cod Blue is a medium-light blue-gray with low chroma and a cool cast. It reads more muted than clear or saturated, with a subtle green-blue undertone that keeps the color restrained on small parts and coated surfaces.
MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to this color can be used on vents, switch covers, access panels, speaker grilles, door hardware, shelf brackets, mailboxes, railings, downspouts, PVC trim pieces, and small appliance or furniture parts. It also fits baskets, frames, and fixture components where a consistent blue-gray coating is needed on metal, plastic, wood, or previously painted surfaces after proper preparation.
Because the color is low in chroma and moderately light, it may take extra coats to cover dark or uneven substrates evenly. Surface texture, primer color, film build, and sheen can all shift the way the blue-gray reads, with smooth or glossy parts often showing the finish more clearly than textured ones. On exterior pieces, weathering and UV exposure can make the color appear a little flatter or more gray over time.
