A match of ICI 1325 Dark Blue Slate is a dark, cool-leaning blue-gray with a subdued slate character. The low chroma keeps it from reading bright or clear, while the low LRV gives it a noticeably deep appearance. In MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to the selected ICI color, it presents as a quiet, grounded shade rather than a vivid blue.
This color is a practical choice for spray-painted parts that need a darker coordinated finish without a strong color statement. It can be used on vents, switch covers, speaker grilles, brackets, railings, shutters, mailboxes, PVC trim pieces, hardware, and small furniture or fixture accents where a muted blue-gray is appropriate. It also fits well on removable parts and accessories that need to match an existing painted surface in a controlled way.
Because it is dark, surface preparation and film build matter. Scratches, texture, and sheen differences can be more noticeable in a color this deep, especially on glossy or uneven substrates. Good coverage and an even finish help the color read consistently, and the final appearance can shift slightly depending on the material and sheen used.

Primer depends on the substrate, its condition, and the paint type you are using. For many projects, primer is not strictly required, but it never hurts and can improve adhesion.
If you are coating a bare, worn, glossy, or otherwise difficult surface, check the prep guidance for the exact MyPerfectColor product you plan to order. That will give you the best direction for ICI 1325 Dark Blue Slate.
Custom-made color matches are not returnable or refundable, so confirm the ICI 1325 Dark Blue Slate reference before you place the order.

Plastics vary widely, so testing on the actual material is important before you commit to the full project. MyPerfectColor spray paint sticks well to most plastics, but prep still matters.
Using the MyPerfectColor primer can improve adhesion on plastic and other challenging surfaces. For ICI 1325 Dark Blue Slate, a test spray on the real part is the safest way to confirm how the finish and adhesion will behave.
A match of ICI 1325 Dark Blue Slate is a practical choice when you want a part or accessory to coordinate with a known paint color and spray application is the easiest way to coat it. Common uses include baskets, frames, shelving, decor pieces, hardware, fixtures, trim details, and other small or removable items.
This is especially useful when the goal is color coordination rather than repainting a large wall or trying to match an aged existing surface exactly.
Coverage depends on the surface size, texture, hiding power, application method, and how many coats you need. A typical can of spray paint covers about 20 square feet with one coat.
If you are using another MyPerfectColor format, coverage is often about 400 to 600 square feet, but the exact amount can vary by product and surface. For ICI 1325 Dark Blue Slate, plan extra if the surface is rough, porous, dark, or likely to need more than one coat.

While MyPerfectColor can provide paint matched to the ICI 1325 Dark Blue Slate, 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.
