A match of Benjamin Moore AF-290 Caliente is a very dark, warm red-brown with an earthy brick tone. It reads as subdued rather than bright, with a strong red oxide character and low light reflectance.
MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to this color can be used on railings, mailbox housings, vent covers, switch plates, speaker grilles, brackets, shelf supports, picture frames, and other small parts where a warm dark finish is needed on metal, plastic, wood, or coated surfaces after proper prep. It can also help coordinate visible hardware, trim pieces, and removable fixtures to a known color reference.
Because this is a dark, moderately saturated color, coverage over light or uneven substrates may take more than one coat. Finish, film build, and the base material can change how deep or red-brown the color appears, and gloss can make surface texture or sheen differences more noticeable. Careful surface preparation and consistent spray application help the color lay down more evenly.

No. A match of Benjamin Moore AF-290 Caliente can read differently in matte, satin, and gloss because the finish changes how much light reflects off the surface and how deep the color appears. The color code stays the same, but the finished look can shift.
If you need the coated part to blend with an existing item, choose the sheen that best matches that item rather than the color name alone. On small parts like vents, trim pieces, brackets, or covers, sheen differences can be noticeable even when the color match is correct.
Confirm the exact brand color reference, the MyPerfectColor product format, the sheen, and the quantity before you place the order. A match of Benjamin Moore AF-290 Caliente is a custom color match made by MyPerfectColor, not Benjamin Moore's original paint product.
For Benjamin Moore colors in this collection, MyPerfectColor does not offer interior or exterior house paint product options. These are made-to-order custom matches, so order carefully because custom-made color matches are not returnable or refundable.
The SDS is tied to the specific MyPerfectColor paint product and chemistry, not to the AF-290 Caliente color name by itself. That means you need the SDS for the exact format you plan to order, such as spray paint or another specialty product.
Check the MyPerfectColor Safety Data Sheets page for the product you are buying. If you change formats, review the SDS for that format before use.
Yes, but plastic varies a lot, so test AF-290 Caliente on the actual material before you coat the full part. MyPerfectColor spray paint sticks well to most plastics, but adhesion can improve when you use the MyPerfectColor primer.
This matters on items like speaker grilles, access panels, covers, housings, brackets, and other removable plastic parts. Clean the surface, follow the prep steps, and test a hidden area first if the plastic is slick, flexible, or unknown.
Clean the surface first, then remove grease, dust, rust, and other contamination before applying AF-290 Caliente. If the old coating is glossy, scuff it so the new coating has something to grip. If the existing finish is failing, flaky, or unstable, address that before coating over it.
The final look can be affected by the condition of the metal, the texture of the old coating, and its gloss level. That is important on railings, mailboxes, gutters, downspouts, vents, hardware, and other parts where you want a repeatable color match on a real working surface.

While we can provide Benjamin Moore AF-290 Caliente in paint, we don't provide any crossover information. We've found that every paint company offers its own unique selection of colors and rarely does a color have an exact equivalent in another brand.
However, under the color image on a color page there is a link that says "Explore Colors". Clicking this link displays colors with similar values and you can look for any colors from the brand 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.
