A match of Behr M510-7 Inked is a dark blue-gray with a muted, cool character and a slight violet cast. Its low LRV means it reads deep rather than bright, while the low chroma keeps the color restrained instead of vivid.

MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to this Behr color can be useful on vents, speaker grilles, switch plates, access panels, brackets, railings, mailbox parts, shelf supports, and other small sprayable components. It also works well for PVC trim pieces, hardware, and removable fixtures when the goal is to carry the same color reference across different materials without a strong visual jump.

Because this is a dark color, surface condition and finish can affect the final look more noticeably than with lighter paints. Smooth, well-prepared metal or plastic usually helps it read even and clean, while rough texture, old coating edges, or uneven film build can make the color appear lighter in some spots and deeper in others. On darker or uneven substrates, careful prep and full coverage matter more than with a lighter gray.

Frequently Asked Questions About Match of Behr™ M510-7 Inked *

Can MyPerfectColor match of M510-7 Inked be used on plastic parts, and should I prime first?

MyPerfectColor spray paint matched to M510-7 Inked can work on most plastics, but plastic types vary a lot. Because of that, test the actual part first whenever possible. For better adhesion on difficult plastic, use the MyPerfectColor primer before you paint.

If the item is removable, it is smart to test a hidden area first so you can confirm adhesion and appearance before coating the full piece.

Where do I find the SDS for M510-7 Inked in MyPerfectColor paint?

The SDS is tied to the specific MyPerfectColor product and chemistry, not to the color name M510-7 Inked by itself. Check the Safety Data Sheets page for the exact MyPerfectColor paint format you plan to order.

If you are comparing spray paint and another format, review the SDS for the one you will actually use before you buy or apply it.

What prep should I do before applying a match of M510-7 Inked to metal or an existing coating?

Before applying a match of M510-7 Inked to metal or an existing coating, clean off dirt, oils, rust, and loose material, then scuff glossy surfaces so the new coating can bond better. If the old coating is failing, peeling, or contaminated, fix that first.

The gloss, texture, and condition of the existing surface can change how the final color reads, so test a small area if the part is important.

How does finish affect a match of M510-7 Inked after it is applied?

Finish is a practical part of ordering a match of M510-7 Inked because sheen changes how reflective the coated item looks. The same color reference can read differently in a flatter finish than in a glossier one.

If the painted part will sit next to another coated surface, choose the closest practical finish to reduce the chance of a visible difference.

For MyPerfectColor spray paint matched to M510-7 Inked, a typical can covers about 20 square feet with one coat. Actual coverage depends on surface size, texture, hiding power, application method, and how many coats you need.
