A match of Benjamin Moore R-9966 Retreat is a deep blue-green with a cool cast and moderate saturation. It reads darker than a mid-tone teal, with enough color presence to stay distinct without looking bright or clear. The low LRV means it will appear notably deep once sprayed.

MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to the selected brand color can be used on vents, switch covers, speaker grilles, metal brackets, shelving supports, mailbox parts, railings, shutters, and PVC trim pieces where a dark blue-green needs to be carried across a small or removable surface. It also fits furniture accents, frames, hardware, and shop or display components when you need the same color on mixed materials.

Because this is a dark, saturated color, surface prep and finish choice matter. Smooth substrates usually show the color more evenly, while scratches, texture, and sheen changes can be easier to notice in the final coat. On light or uneven surfaces, good priming and enough film build can help reduce show-through and support a more uniform result.

Frequently Asked Questions About Match of Benjamin Moore™ R-9966 Retreat *

How do I confirm R-9966 Retreat by Benjamin Moore before ordering a MyPerfectColor match?

Confirm R-9966 Retreat from a physical Benjamin Moore swatch or another known existing color reference, not from a screen image alone. MyPerfectColor matches the original brand color standard, so the main ordering step is making sure the target you want really is R-9966 Retreat.

If you are comparing more than one source, use the same reference you intend to approve for the project so the order is based on a real color standard, not a monitor view.

What should I confirm before ordering a custom match of R-9966 Retreat by Benjamin Moore?

Before you order R-9966 Retreat, confirm the exact color reference, the MyPerfectColor product format you need, and the sheen or finish you want. Custom color matches are made to order, so they should be chosen carefully because they are not returnable or refundable.

This is especially important if the part will be painted only once or if it must coordinate with an existing item where the wrong format or sheen would be hard to correct.

Can I order R-9966 Retreat by Benjamin Moore as house paint from MyPerfectColor, or only as a matched specialty product?

For Benjamin Moore colors like R-9966 Retreat, MyPerfectColor does not offer interior or exterior house paint product options in this collection. It is supplied as MyPerfectColor paint matched to the selected brand color reference in non-housepaint formats such as custom spray paint and other specialty formats.

Before ordering, confirm the format, sheen, and quantity you need so you select the right MyPerfectColor product for the project.

How do dry time and recoating work for MyPerfectColor spray paint matched to R-9966 Retreat?

With MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to R-9966 Retreat, dry to touch, recoat time, and full handling time are different stages. Spray paint is typically dry to touch within minutes, should be recoated in about one to two hours, and is fully cured in about two weeks.

That makes it practical for items like PVC pipe, vents, grilles, hardware, railings, and similar parts, but you should still plan for the longer cure time before hard use or assembly.

Why can R-9966 Retreat by Benjamin Moore look different after I apply a MyPerfectColor match?

Even after you select the correct match of R-9966 Retreat, the finished result can still read differently because of lighting, placement, sheen, substrate, and nearby surfaces. A color on smooth metal can look different from the same match on plastic, wood, or a textured part.

If the item will sit beside an older painted surface, approval can be more sensitive because aging and texture may make the same color appear different in context.

Where can I find the SDS for MyPerfectColor paint matched to R-9966 Retreat by Benjamin Moore?

The SDS is tied to the MyPerfectColor product or chemistry, not to the Benjamin Moore color name alone. For R-9966 Retreat, look up the Safety Data Sheet for the specific MyPerfectColor product you plan to order on the MyPerfectColor site.

If you need compliance details before purchasing, check the SDS for the exact format, such as spray paint, rather than assuming the color name by itself is enough.

How do I convert Benjamin Moore R-9966 Retreat to a different color from another paint company?

While we can provide Benjamin Moore R-9966 Retreat 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.
