A match of Sico 4045-73 January Night is a very dark blue with a cool, slightly violet cast. Its low chroma keeps it subdued rather than bright, and the low LRV means it reads as a deep shade with strong visual weight. In MyPerfectColor paint matched to the selected Sico color reference, finish and substrate can shift how much of that blue-violet undertone shows.

This color suits spray-painted parts that need a dark, restrained finish without reading as black. It can be used on metal brackets, handrails, vent covers, speaker grilles, switch plates, mailbox hardware, shelving supports, fence or railing details, and PVC trim pieces where a match of the selected brand color is needed.

Because the color is very dark, surface prep and even film build matter. Scratches, texture, and sheen differences can show more readily, especially on glossy substrates or when coating only part of an older piece. On light or uneven substrates, darker colors may need a uniform base and additional coats for consistent hide.

Frequently Asked Questions About Match of Sico™ 4045-73 January Night *

Can MyPerfectColor match Sico 4045-73 January Night on plastic, and do I need primer first?

MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to Sico 4045-73 January Night can work on many plastics, but plastic formulas vary a lot. Test on the actual part first so you can confirm adhesion and appearance before coating the full item.

For better adhesion, use the MyPerfectColor primer for acrylic enamel before the color coat. If the plastic is flexible, slick, or previously coated, the test piece becomes even more important because prep and adhesion can change from one substrate to another.

How should I choose a finish for Sico 4045-73 January Night when ordering MyPerfectColor paint?

Choose the finish based on how the item will be used, cleaned, and viewed. A glossier finish is usually easier to clean and reflects more light, while a flatter finish reduces reflectivity but may be less durable in some uses.

Keep in mind that the same match of Sico 4045-73 January Night can look different depending on sheen. If the part will be handled often or washed, prioritize durability and cleanup. If appearance matching matters most, the finish you choose becomes part of how the color reads on the finished item.

Where can I find the SDS for MyPerfectColor paint matched to Sico 4045-73 January Night?

The SDS is tied to the MyPerfectColor product and chemistry you order, not to the Sico color name alone. If you need the safety information for the exact paint you are buying, check the MyPerfectColor Safety Data Sheets page for that product family.

If you are comparing formats, make sure you review the SDS for the specific MyPerfectColor paint you plan to use, since spray paint and other coatings can have different safety data.

Will Sico 4045-73 January Night look the same after application on my part?

The color match is based on the selected Sico 4045-73 January Night reference, but the finished appearance can still shift once it is applied. Lighting, sheen, substrate texture, film build, and nearby surfaces all affect how the color reads on the final item.

If the part will sit next to an existing painted surface, test the match on the same material and check it in the lighting where it will be used. That is the best way to reduce surprises before you paint the full piece.

How much MyPerfectColor paint matched to Sico 4045-73 January Night do I need for my project?

For other MyPerfectColor paint formats, coverage is typically about 400 to 600 square feet per gallon, but the real amount can be lower on rough or porous surfaces. If you are coating plastic, hardware, trim pieces, or multiple parts, plan for extra paint so you are not short on the final coat.
