A match of Behr 847 Bluewaters is a muted blue-green with a noticeable gray cast and a medium-dark value. With low chroma and an LRV of 16.53, it reads as a subdued teal rather than a bright or saturated color, and it can lean a little more blue or green depending on finish, surface, and lighting.

MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to the selected brand color can be useful on vents, switch plates, speaker grilles, railings, brackets, shelving supports, hardware, mailbox parts, shutters, PVC trim pieces, and other small components where a smooth sprayed finish is practical. It also works well for metal, plastic, wood, and previously coated accessories that need to stay consistent with a known color reference.

Because the color is relatively dark, substrate condition and sheen can affect how deep or even it looks after spraying. Surface prep and film build matter, and gloss finishes can make texture, seams, and uneven prep more noticeable than a flatter finish. On exterior parts, the subdued character of the color is less prone to reading overly bright, but the final result still depends on coverage, surface condition, and exposure.

Frequently Asked Questions About Match of Behr™ 847 Bluewaters *

How should I prepare a surface before applying 847 Bluewaters by Behr in MyPerfectColor paint?

For 847 Bluewaters, clean off dirt, wax, and grease first, then let the surface dry fully. Lightly scuff the part if the substrate allows it, mask off areas you do not want coated, and test the color on the actual surface before starting the full job.

This helps because MyPerfectColor is supplying a custom match of 847 Bluewaters, and the final result can change with surface condition, texture, and how the coating is applied.

Where do I find the SDS for 847 Bluewaters by Behr when ordering MyPerfectColor paint?

The SDS is tied to the MyPerfectColor product and chemistry, not to the 847 Bluewaters color name alone. Look up the Safety Data Sheet for the exact MyPerfectColor product format you are buying, such as spray paint or another made-to-order format.

If you need SDS details for a specific order, use the MyPerfectColor Safety Data Sheets page for that product rather than relying on the Behr color reference by itself.

Which finish should I choose for 847 Bluewaters by Behr in MyPerfectColor paint?

Choose the finish based on how the part will be used and how much reflection you can accept. Higher sheen is usually easier to wipe down and can feel more durable on handled parts, but it will show more light reflection and can make 847 Bluewaters read differently than the same color in a flatter finish.

Flatter finishes reduce reflection and can help the coating look more even on some substrates, while glossier finishes are often better for parts that need frequent cleaning. The sheen you order is part of how the finished item will look, not just a cosmetic detail.

How should I spray 847 Bluewaters by Behr to avoid runs or uneven color?

Apply 847 Bluewaters in several light, even coats instead of trying to cover in one heavy pass. Keep the spray moving, overlap each pass slightly, and avoid loading the surface with too much wet paint at once.

Heavy application can cause runs, uneven sheen, or a muddy look, especially on small parts, hardware, or other detailed items where MyPerfectColor custom spray paint is being used.

Can I spray 847 Bluewaters by Behr on plastic, and do I need primer?

Many plastics can be coated with MyPerfectColor spray paint matched to 847 Bluewaters, but plastics vary a lot, so test on the actual part first. Clean the surface well and make sure any mold release, oils, or residue are removed before spraying.

Using the MyPerfectColor primer for acrylic enamel can improve adhesion on difficult plastic surfaces. If the part is smooth or flexible, a test piece is the safest way to confirm the prep and finish before you coat the full item.

How do I convert Behr 847 Bluewaters to a different color from another paint company?

While we can provide Behr 847 Bluewaters 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.
