A match of Dunn Edwards DEA138 Indigo Night reads as a deep, cool blue with a subtle violet cast. With low light reflectance, it appears dark rather than bright, and the color can shift a little deeper or more muted depending on sheen and substrate.
MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to this color is useful on small parts that need a dark blue finish, such as HVAC vents, speaker grilles, switch covers, camera housings, railings, brackets, mailboxes, shelving ends, and metal or plastic hardware. It also works well on trim components, shutters, downspouts, and other removable pieces where sprayed coverage is easier to control than brushing.
Because this is a dark, moderately saturated color, surface prep and film build can affect the final read. On lighter or uneven bases, consistent coverage may take multiple light coats, and changes in gloss can make the blue-violet character and surface texture more noticeable. Exterior exposure can also soften the color over time.
