A match of Benjamin Moore R-9962 Annapolis Royale is a very dark blue with a cool cast and a slight blue-green undertone. Its low LRV gives it an inky, subdued look rather than a bright blue, and the color can read a bit deeper or flatter depending on sheen and substrate.

MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to the selected Benjamin Moore color reference is useful on small parts that need a dark blue finish, such as vents, speaker grilles, switch covers, brackets, shelf supports, railings, mailboxes, shutters, hardware, and removable fixture parts. It can also be used on PVC, metal trim pieces, and other sprayable components where a compact, repeatable color match matters.

Because this is a dark, moderately saturated color, surface preparation and finish choice can affect the final read. Smooth, glossy substrates often make scratches, edges, and sheen differences more noticeable, while porous or uneven surfaces may need more build to reach an even blue tone. On exterior parts, darker colors can also make wear and fading easier to notice over time than quieter neutrals.

Frequently Asked Questions About Match of Benjamin Moore™ R-9962 Annapolis Royale *

How do I confirm that R-9962 Annapolis Royale from Benjamin Moore is the right color before ordering a MyPerfectColor match?

Confirm R-9962 Annapolis Royale from a physical swatch, fan deck, or another known original Benjamin Moore color reference. Screen color is not reliable enough for ordering because displays can shift the appearance of the color.

MyPerfectColor matches to the original brand color standard, not to what a screen shows or to an aged painted surface. If you already have a verified reference for R-9962 Annapolis Royale, use that as the ordering target.

Will the finish change how R-9962 Annapolis Royale looks after I apply a MyPerfectColor match?

Yes. The finish or sheen changes how R-9962 Annapolis Royale reflects light, so the same color can look different after application even when the color match is correct.

This does not change the color reference itself, but it can change the perceived look on the finished item. For best results, choose the finish that fits the object and test on the actual surface whenever appearance is important.

How much MyPerfectColor paint matched to R-9962 Annapolis Royale should I plan to order?

Coverage depends on the size of the item, surface texture, hiding power, application method, and how many coats are needed. A typical can of spray paint covers about 20 square feet with one coat.

For other paint formats, coverage is often about 400 to 600 square feet, but the actual amount can be lower on rough, porous, or dark surfaces. If you are coating R-9962 Annapolis Royale over a difficult substrate or want extra margin for a second coat, plan accordingly.

How long does R-9962 Annapolis Royale spray paint take to dry, recoat, and fully cure?

For spray application, dry to touch is usually reached within minutes, but that is not the same as being ready for another coat or full handling.

Plan to recoat R-9962 Annapolis Royale in about 1 to 2 hours, and allow about two weeks for full cure. Handle the part carefully between coats so you do not mark or disturb the finish.

Do I need primer before applying R-9962 Annapolis Royale to my surface?

Primer needs depend on the substrate, its condition, and the product type you are using. For R-9962 Annapolis Royale, a primer is not always required, but it can help with adhesion and surface uniformity.

As a rule of thumb, primer never hurts and can only improve adhesion. It is especially worth considering on slick, porous, damaged, or high-contrast surfaces before applying the matched color.

How do I convert Benjamin Moore R-9962 Annapolis Royale to a different color from another paint company?

While we can provide Benjamin Moore R-9962 Annapolis Royale 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.
