A match of Martha Stewart 8086 Belgian Block is a muted gray-beige with a warm, earthy cast. It reads as a soft neutral rather than a crisp gray, with low chroma and a medium-light value that keep the color quiet and slightly stone-like.
MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to 8086 Belgian Block is suited to small parts that need to blend with painted surfaces, such as HVAC vents, switch covers, speaker grilles, brackets, mailboxes, railings, shutters, PVC trim pieces, and hardware. It can also be useful on baskets, frames, shelving, and fixture accents when a subdued neutral finish is needed on a sprayable item.
Because the color is relatively light and low in saturation, it may show the color of a dark or uneven substrate until coverage builds. Surface texture, primer choice, and gloss level can shift the result slightly warmer or cooler, and smoother finishes usually make the neutral tone read more evenly.

About Martha Stewart Paint Colors
For many years, Martha Stewart provided paint and color collections through partnerships with paint manufacturers and sold them through various home centers. A few years ago, Martha Stewart decided to stop selling paint and as a result, Martha Stewart 8086 Belgian Block is no longer available anywhere.
MyPerfectColor is able to match all of the Martha Stewart paint colors including 8086 Belgian Block so you can still find and enjoy the colors you love. MyPerfectColor uses its expert capabilities to recreate the original Martha Stewart 8086 Belgian Block by matching the original Martha Stewart color books and swatches. MyPerfectColor is not using Martha Stewart paint as this is no longer available.
MyPerfectColor matches Martha Stewart 8086 Belgian Block based on Martha Stewart color publications. The colors shown on this website are computer video simulations of the Martha Stewart Color and may not match Martha Stewart Color standards. Refer to Martha Stewart Publications to obtain the accurate color.
Please know that MyPerfectColor is matching the original Martha Stewart color. If you intend to touch up paint that has been on your walls for years, know that your color has undoubtedly changed from the original due to exposure to light and age and the new paint may not match. You will achieve the best results by re-coating the entire surface.
MyPerfectColor does not offer matches of any Martha Stewart Specialty Finishes such as the faux or metallic finishes.

Frequently Asked Questions About Match of Martha Stewart™ 8086 Belgian Block *
How do I confirm that Martha Stewart 8086 Belgian Block is the right color reference before ordering MyPerfectColor paint?
Confirm Martha Stewart 8086 Belgian Block from a physical swatch, fan deck, label, or an existing painted item tied to that brand color reference. Screen images are not reliable enough for an ordering decision because lighting and display settings can shift how the color appears. MyPerfectColor matches to the original brand color reference, so the best way to avoid ordering the wrong product is to verify the target color before you buy.
Also note that the code alone does not tell you the sheen, product line, or how an older painted surface will look today. If you are matching a new part or a known reference, a MyPerfectColor match of 8086 Belgian Block is the right starting point.
How much MyPerfectColor paint should I order for 8086 Belgian Block, and how does coverage vary?
Coverage for 8086 Belgian Block depends on the surface size, texture, porosity, application method, and how many coats you need. As a planning guide, a typical can of spray paint covers about 20 square feet with one coat. Other MyPerfectColor paint formats often cover about 400 to 600 square feet, but your actual result can be lower on rough, uneven, or absorbent surfaces.
If you are unsure, measure the project area, plan for extra material if you are changing from a darker color or covering a textured part, and allow for a second coat if the surface does not hide evenly the first time.
Where can I find the SDS for MyPerfectColor 8086 Belgian Block?
The SDS is tied to the MyPerfectColor product and chemistry, not to the 8086 Belgian Block color name alone. To find the correct Safety Data Sheet, use the MyPerfectColor Safety Data Sheets page and select the exact product format you are ordering.
The page provided in the input is: https://www.myperfectcolor.com/Safety-Data-Sheets/33970.htm. Make sure the SDS matches the specific MyPerfectColor spray paint or other product you plan to use.
Can I use MyPerfectColor 8086 Belgian Block as custom spray paint for switch covers, vents, or hardware?
Yes. MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to 8086 Belgian Block is useful for small parts and fixtures such as switch covers, knobs, vents, speaker grilles, brackets, trim pieces, and similar items where a spray finish is practical.
It works best when the part can be removed, cleaned, and sprayed evenly. For a better result, use the right surface prep for the material and make sure the item can dry without being handled too soon. This is a color-matched MyPerfectColor product, not the original Martha Stewart paint.
How long does MyPerfectColor 8086 Belgian Block spray paint take to dry, recoat, and cure?
For 8086 Belgian Block spray paint, dry-to-touch happens within minutes, recoating is typically done in 1 to 2 hours, and full cure is about two weeks. Those are different stages, so a surface may feel dry before it is ready for hard handling or assembly.
If you need to stack, reinstall, or put the part back into service, wait longer than the dry-to-touch time. Temperature, humidity, film thickness, and the substrate can all affect how quickly the coating is ready for the next step.

How do I find the same color as the Martha Stewart 8086 Belgian Block in a different company?
While MyPerfectColor can provide paint matched to the Martha Stewart 8086 Belgian Block, 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.
