Match of Porter Paints™ 6461-1 Salem Blue *

Yes, but confirm the Porter Paints 6461-1 Salem Blue reference, the MyPerfectColor product format, the sheen, and the quantity before you order. MyPerfectColor makes a custom-matched paint to the selected brand color, not the original Porter Paints product, and custom-made color matches are not returnable or refundable.

Choose the sheen based on how the part will be used and cleaned, not just on the color name. Lower sheens usually reduce reflectivity, while higher sheens are typically easier to wipe down and can look different once 6461-1 Salem Blue is sprayed on the final surface. If you need the closest visual read to the original color target, remember that sheen can change the way the match appears on the finished item.

Yes, MyPerfectColor spray paint matched to Porter Paints 6461-1 Salem Blue can work on many plastics, but plastic types vary a lot. Test on the actual material when you can, and use primer if you want better adhesion and a more reliable result. MyPerfectColor primer for Acrylic Enamel is the recommended prep step when adhesion is a concern.

Clean the surface, remove grease, dirt, and other contamination, and scuff sound existing coatings so the new paint has a better surface to bond to. If there is rust, loose paint, or failing coating, remove that first. On metal and over old coatings, the condition of the surface can affect both adhesion and how the finished 6461-1 Salem Blue color reads.

The selected color target stays the same, but the finished look can change with lighting, placement, sheen, and nearby surfaces. That matters with 6461-1 Salem Blue because a match can read differently on a wall, trim piece, fixture, or removable part once it is installed. If the item will sit beside an existing surface, check it in the actual lighting before approving the final result.

While MyPerfectColor can provide paint matched to the Porter Paints 6461-1 Salem Blue, 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.
