A match of Sico 3036-43 Bleu Napoleon is a dark, cool blue with a faint green undertone. It reads as a muted-to-moderate chroma color rather than a bright primary blue, so it has depth without looking flat. The low LRV means it can appear quite dark, especially in lower light.

MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to the selected brand color can be used on shutters, railings, mailbox parts, vents, switch plates, speaker grilles, brackets, and other small metal or plastic components where a dark blue reference needs to carry across removable parts. It can also work on PVC trim, hardware, shelving brackets, and equipment covers when the goal is to keep the same blue on small sprayable pieces.

Because this is a relatively dark color, surface prep, film build, and finish can affect how even it reads. Gloss and semi-gloss surfaces may show texture and repair lines more clearly than flatter finishes, and darker substrates can reduce the number of coats needed. Over light or uneven substrates, steady coverage and full dry film are important for a consistent result.

Frequently Asked Questions About Match of Sico™ 3036-43 Bleu Napoleon *

How does finish affect a match of 3036-43 Bleu Napoleon (Sico) after it is sprayed?

Finish changes how a match of 3036-43 Bleu Napoleon reflects light, so the same color can look different once it is on the part. A glossier finish will usually look more reflective and can make the color read differently than a flatter finish. On textured or uneven surfaces, the sheen can also change how much the surface details stand out.

If you are coating a trim piece, fixture, grille, or hardware item, choose the finish based on the look and performance you need on that object, not just the color name. A match of 3036-43 Bleu Napoleon in one sheen is still the same color reference, but the final appearance can shift with gloss level, substrate, and surface prep.

Where can I find the SDS for MyPerfectColor paint matched to 3036-43 Bleu Napoleon (Sico)?

The Safety Data Sheet is tied to the MyPerfectColor product and chemistry, not to the Sico color name alone. For a match of 3036-43 Bleu Napoleon, use the MyPerfectColor Safety Data Sheets page: https://www.myperfectcolor.com/Safety-Data-Sheets/33970.htm.

If you are ordering a different MyPerfectColor product type in this color, check the SDS for that specific product so you are reviewing the right safety information before use.

What should I confirm before ordering a custom match of 3036-43 Bleu Napoleon (Sico) if returns are not allowed?

Before ordering, confirm that 3036-43 Bleu Napoleon is the exact color reference you want, then verify the MyPerfectColor product type, sheen, and quantity. Custom-made color matches are made to order, so it is important to get those details right before checkout.

If the part will be sprayed, also check that the format you choose fits the substrate and the application method. Once a custom match of 3036-43 Bleu Napoleon is made, it is not returnable or refundable, so it is best to review the order carefully before placing it.

How do I choose the right sheen for MyPerfectColor paint matched to 3036-43 Bleu Napoleon (Sico) for parts like vents, trim, or hardware?

Choose the sheen based on how the part will be used and how much reflectivity you want on the finished item. Lower sheens reduce shine and can hide surface imperfections better, while higher sheens are usually easier to wipe down and can stand up better on higher-touch parts.

For a match of 3036-43 Bleu Napoleon on items such as vents, switch covers, hardware, or trim pieces, the sheen choice matters as much as the color reference because gloss changes the way the color reads. Pick the sheen that fits the part, then order the color in that finish so the result matches your project needs.

If you are painting a part that will be handled, stacked, installed, or reassembled, wait for the coating to reach the proper stage before putting it back in service. Early handling can mark the finish even if it feels dry on the surface.
