A match of Benjamin Moore 2080-20 Patriot Red reads as a deep red with a warm bias and a subdued, earthy character. With a low LRV, it sits on the darker side of the red range rather than appearing bright or open, and the moderate chroma gives it color presence without making it look overly vivid.

MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to this selected brand color can be used on steel brackets, handrails, vent covers, switch plates, speaker grilles, mailbox parts, shelving supports, door hardware, and other small sprayable components. It is also a practical choice for PVC, metal fixtures, trim pieces, and removable accessories that need to coordinate with an existing painted color reference.

Because this is a deep, moderately saturated red, application quality and film build can affect how even it looks. Smooth, well-prepared surfaces usually read more cleanly, while rough texture, patchy primer, or thin coverage can leave the color looking uneven. As with most darker colors, sheen and substrate can change the perceived depth, so consistent prep and full coverage matter when matching adjacent parts.

Frequently Asked Questions About Match of Benjamin Moore™ 2080-20 Patriot Red *

Where can I find the SDS for 2080-20 Patriot Red?

The SDS applies to the MyPerfectColor product chemistry for 2080-20 Patriot Red, not to the Benjamin Moore color name by itself. You can find the MyPerfectColor Safety Data Sheets here: Safety Data Sheets.

How do I confirm the right reference for 2080-20 Patriot Red before ordering?

Confirm 2080-20 Patriot Red from a physical Benjamin Moore swatch or a known existing sample of the color, not from a screen view alone. Device settings, lighting, and display differences can change how the color appears, so a physical reference is the safer way to choose the target before you order a MyPerfectColor match.

How much 2080-20 Patriot Red should I order for my project?

Coverage for 2080-20 Patriot Red depends on the surface size, texture, hiding power, application method, and how many coats you need. A typical spray can covers about 20 square feet with one coat. Other MyPerfectColor paint formats often cover about 400 to 600 square feet, but actual coverage still depends on the product format and the surface you are coating.

If the surface is rough, porous, dark, or uneven, plan for more material because those conditions usually increase paint use.

What prep should I do before applying 2080-20 Patriot Red to metal or an existing coating?

Before applying 2080-20 Patriot Red, clean the surface well and remove dirt, oils, rust, and other contamination. On metal or an existing coating, scuff the surface so the new coating can grip better. If the old coating is loose, failing, or rusted, address that first instead of spraying over it.

Gloss, texture, and the condition of the old coating can all change how the finished color looks, so a test area is a practical step on visible parts.

Will 2080-20 Patriot Red look the same if I change the finish?

No. The same 2080-20 Patriot Red color can read differently in matte versus gloss because finish changes how light reflects off the surface. The color target is still the same, but the finished look can appear deeper, brighter, or flatter depending on the sheen you choose.

If the part must match another coated item, compare the same finish to the same finish so you are judging the color and not the sheen difference.

How do I convert Benjamin Moore 2080-20 Patriot Red to a different color from another paint company?

While we can provide Benjamin Moore 2080-20 Patriot Red 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.
