A match of Benjamin Moore 2050-10 Salamander is a very dark, subdued blue-green with a strong charcoal cast. It reads cool and muted rather than bright, with low chroma that keeps the color close to a deep green-gray in many lighting conditions.

MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to this color can be useful on vents, switch covers, speaker grilles, mailbox hardware, brackets, railings, PVC fittings, shelving supports, and trim pieces where a dark architectural color is needed on a smaller part or removable surface. It is also a practical match for fixtures, access panels, and other coated components that need to coordinate with a known Benjamin Moore color reference without using the original brand paint.

Because this is a very dark color, surface prep and finish choice can affect how it reads. Gloss and semi-gloss coatings can make scratches, texture, and substrate changes more noticeable, while uneven or contrasting bases may show through if coverage is thin. On some materials, a careful primer and more than one coat may be needed for even color development and consistent depth.

Frequently Asked Questions About Match of Benjamin Moore™ 2050-10 Salamander *

Can 2050-10 Salamander be sprayed onto plastic parts?

Yes, MyPerfectColor spray paint matched to Benjamin Moore 2050-10 Salamander can work on many plastic parts, but plastics vary a lot. Clean the part well, remove any mold release, oils, or dust, and test on the actual material before painting the full item.

If the plastic is difficult to coat or has low surface energy, use MyPerfectColor primer to improve adhesion. A small test is the safest way to confirm how 2050-10 Salamander will look and bond on your specific plastic.

What prep is needed before applying 2050-10 Salamander to metal or an existing coating?

Before spraying a match of Benjamin Moore 2050-10 Salamander on metal, clean the surface thoroughly and remove rust, oxidation, grease, and other contamination. If the existing coating is glossy or slick, scuff it first so the new coating can grip better.

If the old finish is failing, peeling, or uneven, fix that first because the condition of the base surface can affect both adhesion and the final appearance. Gloss, texture, and the condition of the old coating can all change how 2050-10 Salamander reads after it dries.

How do I choose a finish for 2050-10 Salamander matched paint?

Choose the finish based on how the part will be used, because sheen affects durability, cleanup, reflectivity, and how the matched color looks on the finished item. A higher gloss finish is usually easier to wipe clean, but it reflects more light and can make surface flaws more noticeable.

A lower sheen finish is less reflective and may hide small surface imperfections better, but it can look different from a glossier coating even when the color match is correct. For 2050-10 Salamander, the finish choice should match the part and the expected wear, not just the color name.

What should I confirm before ordering 2050-10 Salamander from MyPerfectColor?

Confirm that you want a MyPerfectColor match of Benjamin Moore 2050-10 Salamander, not the original Benjamin Moore paint product. Then choose the MyPerfectColor format you need, the sheen, and the quantity before placing the order.

Custom color matches are made specifically for your order and are not returnable or refundable, so it is worth checking the reference, format, and finish carefully. For Benjamin Moore colors, MyPerfectColor does not offer interior or exterior house paint product options, so focus on the non-housepaint formats MyPerfectColor actually sells.

Where can I find the SDS for 2050-10 Salamander?

The SDS is tied to the specific MyPerfectColor product and chemistry, not to the Benjamin Moore 2050-10 Salamander color name alone. If you are ordering a spray can or another MyPerfectColor format, check the SDS for that exact product type.

You can look up the Safety Data Sheets for the MyPerfectColor product line on the MyPerfectColor Safety Data Sheets page. That is the right place to verify safety information for the exact coating you plan to use.

Will a MyPerfectColor match of 2050-10 Salamander blend with an existing painted surface?

If you are painting a complete part or a removable component, a standard match of Benjamin Moore 2050-10 Salamander is usually the right starting point. If the new coating will sit next to an older painted surface, expect possible differences from aging, gloss, texture, contamination, or prior repainting.

That is why the same color can look different from one surface to another even when the match itself is correct. For the lowest risk, test 2050-10 Salamander on the actual item and compare it in the same lighting where it will be used.

How quickly will I receive my paint matched to Benjamin Moore 2050-10 Salamander?

How do I convert Benjamin Moore 2050-10 Salamander to a different color from another paint company?

While we can provide Benjamin Moore 2050-10 Salamander 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.
