A match of Dulux 9-098 Blue Grey is a deep blue-gray with a cool cast, low chroma, and a muted, nearly charcoal-like depth. It reads subdued rather than bright, with the blue undertone still visible against the gray base.

MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to this color is useful on parts that need a quiet, coordinated finish rather than a bright accent. It can be applied to HVAC vents, switch covers, speaker grilles, brackets, shelf supports, railings, mailboxes, shutters, PVC fittings, and other removable hardware or small fixtures where a dark blue-gray helps the piece recede visually.

Because this is a dark color with a low LRV, it can show surface texture, sheen changes, and prep marks more clearly than a lighter neutral. Coverage is usually more forgiving than a pale color, but an even substrate and steady film build still matter; thin areas, glossy patches, or uneven base colors can change how deep the finish reads.

Frequently Asked Questions About Match of Dulux™ 9-098 Blue Grey *

How do I confirm that Dulux 9-098 Blue Grey is the right color reference before ordering MyPerfectColor paint?

Confirm the target color from a physical swatch or a known existing painted sample from the original brand, not from a screen alone. MyPerfectColor matches the selected brand color reference, so the most important step is making sure Dulux 9-098 Blue Grey is the exact color you want before you order.

If you are matching something that already exists, remember that an aged or weathered surface may not read the same as the original color standard. In that case, verify whether you want a match to the original Dulux 9-098 Blue Grey reference or a match to the current appearance of the part.

Where can I find the SDS for Dulux 9-098 Blue Grey from MyPerfectColor?

The SDS is tied to the MyPerfectColor product and chemistry, not to the Dulux 9-098 Blue Grey color name by itself. If you need the safety document for the paint you are ordering, check the MyPerfectColor Safety Data Sheets page for the specific product format.

You can find it here: https://www.myperfectcolor.com/Safety-Data-Sheets/33970.htm

If you are choosing between product formats, make sure you review the SDS for the exact MyPerfectColor paint you plan to use.

Can I apply a match of Dulux 9-098 Blue Grey over metal or an existing coating?

Yes, but surface condition matters. Clean the metal or coated surface first, remove oil, dust, and contamination, and scuff any sound glossy coating so the new paint can bond better. If there is rust, loose paint, or failing finish, remove or repair it before applying a match of Dulux 9-098 Blue Grey.

The final look can change with the condition of the old coating, the texture underneath, and the gloss level of the new finish. If you are working on bare metal or an unfamiliar substrate, a test area is a practical way to reduce risk before painting the full part.

Which finish should I order for Dulux 9-098 Blue Grey in MyPerfectColor paint?

Choose the finish based on how the item will be used and how much reflectivity you want, because the color code Dulux 9-098 Blue Grey does not determine sheen by itself. Higher gloss finishes are usually easier to wipe clean but reflect more light, while flatter finishes reduce shine and can make the same color read differently on the finished part.

If you are matching a part next to an existing surface, try to keep the sheen as close as practical to the surrounding finish. In MyPerfectColor, the color match and the finish are separate decisions, so the right choice depends on the project, not just the color name.

Why can Dulux 9-098 Blue Grey look different after I apply the MyPerfectColor match?

Even after you choose the correct target color, lighting, placement, nearby surfaces, sheen, substrate texture, and film thickness can change how Dulux 9-098 Blue Grey reads on the finished item. The MyPerfectColor match is made to the selected brand color reference, but the viewing conditions around the painted part still affect what you see.

This is especially important when the new coating sits beside an existing painted surface or under a different light source than the original reference. If appearance is critical, evaluate the painted item under the same lighting and against the same neighboring surfaces it will have in use.
