Match of Duron™ 4985A St. Louis Blue *

Choose the sheen based on how durable the item needs to be and how much reflectivity you want on the finished part. Lower-sheen finishes usually hide surface flaws better, while higher-sheen finishes are easier to wipe clean but can make the matched color look more reflective. With 4985A St. Louis Blue, the same color can read a little differently as the sheen changes, so confirm the finish before ordering.

If you are coating trim, vents, hardware, PVC, or other removable parts, pick the sheen that best matches the surrounding surface and the wear level of the item. MyPerfectColor can supply a match of 4985A St. Louis Blue in spray paint and other formats, but the sheen choice is part of the order and affects the final appearance.

Before ordering 4985A St. Louis Blue, confirm the exact color reference, the product format, the sheen, and the quantity you need. MyPerfectColor makes a custom-matched paint to the selected brand color reference, so it is important to order the right version the first time.

Custom color orders are made for your project and should be chosen carefully because they are not returnable or refundable. If you are matching a removable part, a spray can, or another component that will sit near existing surfaces, make sure the reference you selected is the one you want before placing the order.

Not always. Even when the color match is correct, 4985A St. Louis Blue can look different after application depending on lighting, sheen, the substrate, and the nearby surfaces. A match that looks right on a swatch can read slightly different once it is on a wall, fixture, pipe, grille, or other finished item.

If the part will be viewed next to an existing painted surface, those differences matter more. MyPerfectColor can match 4985A St. Louis Blue to the selected brand color reference, but the final appearance still depends on where and how the coating is applied.

Coverage depends on the surface size, texture, hiding power, application method, and how many coats you need. For spray paint, a typical can covers about 20 square feet with one coat. Other MyPerfectColor paint formats typically cover about 400 to 600 square feet, depending on the product and application.

If you are coating PVC pipe, vents, hardware, shutters, or other small parts, estimate the total surface area first and then allow for extra paint if the surface is rough, porous, or dark enough to need more than one coat. For a custom match of 4985A St. Louis Blue, ordering enough material up front helps avoid stopping mid-project.

Use light, even coats and keep the spray distance consistent. Overlap each pass slightly so the color builds evenly across the surface. Heavy passes can cause runs, uneven sheen, or a muddy-looking finish, especially when you are trying to reproduce 4985A St. Louis Blue on a small part or detail piece.

This approach works well on items like trim pieces, grilles, brackets, frames, baskets, and other objects where spray application is practical. If the part will be seen close up, proper surface prep and controlled spraying are important because the final look of a match of 4985A St. Louis Blue depends on film build as much as color.

While MyPerfectColor can provide paint matched to the Duron 4985A St. Louis 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.
