A match of ICI 1488 Blackberry Farm reads as a dark, low-chroma blue-gray with a cool cast. It is subdued rather than clear or vivid, with a slate-like depth that stays closer to blue-gray than to true black.
MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to this ICI color can be used on vents, switch covers, speaker grilles, railings, mailbox parts, brackets, shelving, hardware, PVC trim pieces, and other small components where a coordinated dark blue-gray is needed. It is also a practical choice for fixtures and accessories that need a restrained finish without shifting into a bright navy.
Because the color is dark, lighter or uneven substrates may take extra coats before the finish looks fully even. Finish and substrate texture can also change how deep or cool the color appears, and glossier coatings will show surface irregularities more readily than flatter ones.

Frequently Asked Questions About Match of ICI™ 1488 Blackberry Farm *
How do I confirm the right match of ICI 1488 Blackberry Farm before ordering MyPerfectColor paint?
Use a physical swatch or a known existing painted reference for ICI 1488 Blackberry Farm, not a screen image alone, before you order. MyPerfectColor makes a custom match to that brand color reference, so confirming the target color first helps you avoid choosing the wrong shade.
If you are ordering for a specific surface, also decide the product format and sheen before checkout because those choices affect the final result.
What should I check before ordering custom MyPerfectColor paint matched to ICI 1488 Blackberry Farm?
Confirm the exact reference for ICI 1488 Blackberry Farm, the product format, the sheen, and the quantity before placing the order. Custom-made color matches are prepared for that selected target and are not returnable or refundable, so it is best to verify the details up front.
If you are unsure about the target, compare it to a physical swatch or a known existing color reference before you buy.
Can I order MyPerfectColor spray paint matched to ICI 1488 Blackberry Farm for baskets, frames, or hardware?
Yes. MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to ICI 1488 Blackberry Farm is a practical choice for baskets, frames, shelving, decor pieces, hardware, and similar small parts where spray application is easier than brushing.

Why might a match of ICI 1488 Blackberry Farm look different after it is applied?

If the item will sit next to an existing painted surface, be aware that age and wear on the old coating can make the new application read differently even when the color reference is the same.

How do I find the same color as the ICI 1488 Blackberry Farm in a different company?
While MyPerfectColor can provide paint matched to the ICI 1488 Blackberry Farm, 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.
