A match of ICI 1484 Mary Janes reads as a very dark, muted blue-gray with a cool cast. Its low LRV and low chroma point to a subdued appearance that sits close to charcoal, with the blue note kept quiet rather than crisp or bright.
MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to this color can be useful on vents, switch covers, speaker grilles, camera housings, shelf brackets, rail components, and other small parts that need a dark, restrained finish. It can also be applied to mailbox parts, shutter hardware, PVC trim pieces, and fixture covers where spray application is practical and a consistent blue-gray tone is needed across different materials.
Because the color is so dark, finish and surface prep can affect how it reads. Thin coverage may allow lighter substrate color or patchy repair areas to show through, and gloss level can make texture, scratches, and edge wear more noticeable. Even spray passes and proper primer selection can help the match appear more even on metal, plastic, or wood.
MyPerfectColor is supplying its own paint matched to the selected brand color reference, not the original brand product. The final appearance can shift with substrate, film build, and sheen, so the same match may read slightly different on smooth plastic than on primed metal or wood.

Frequently Asked Questions About Match of ICI™ 1484 Mary Janes *
How should I spray MyPerfectColor match of ICI 1484 Mary Janes to avoid runs or uneven coverage?
Use light, even coats and keep the spray moving so the film builds gradually. A match of ICI 1484 Mary Janes can look uneven if you hold the can too close, pause in one spot, or apply one heavy coat.
For small parts, fixtures, trim pieces, or removable accessories, a few thin passes with a consistent overlap are usually safer than trying to cover everything at once. Let each coat dry according to the product label before the next pass, and inspect for wet spots or heavy edges before continuing.
What sheen should I choose for MyPerfectColor 1484 Mary Janes if I want the color to read correctly on the finished part?
Choose the sheen based on the item's use and the look you need, because sheen changes how a match of ICI 1484 Mary Janes reads after application. Lower sheen finishes usually reduce reflectivity, while higher sheen finishes are typically easier to wipe clean and may look deeper or more reflective.
If you are coating trim, hardware, vents, or removable fixtures, think about durability and cleanup as well as appearance. The color reference stays the same, but the finished look can shift with gloss level, so match the finish to the project instead of choosing sheen by color name alone.
Why does MyPerfectColor match of ICI 1484 Mary Janes look different after it is sprayed on my part?
Lighting, placement, sheen, and nearby surfaces can change how a match of ICI 1484 Mary Janes appears after application. The same color can read darker, lighter, flatter, or more reflective once it is on a real object instead of viewed as a swatch.
This matters most on items that sit beside existing painted surfaces, or in areas with strong daylight, mixed lighting, or heavy shadow. If the part will be seen next to other coated pieces, expect the finished appearance to be influenced by the full environment, not just the color reference itself.
How do I confirm ICI 1484 Mary Janes is the right color before ordering a MyPerfectColor match?
Confirm ICI 1484 Mary Janes from a physical swatch or another known original brand color reference before you order. Screen viewing alone can be misleading, and MyPerfectColor is matching the selected brand color reference rather than guessing from a monitor.
If you already know the target color, use that confirmed reference to place the order and choose the format you need. This helps reduce the risk of ordering a match of the wrong paint color target.

How do I find the same color as the ICI 1484 Mary Janes in a different company?
While MyPerfectColor can provide paint matched to the ICI 1484 Mary Janes, 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.
