A match of Benjamin Moore CSP-1170 parisian red is a deep, warm red-brown with a muted, earthy character. It sits closer to brick and oxblood than to a clean bright red, with a low light reflectance value that gives it a closed-in, darker appearance.

MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to the selected Benjamin Moore color reference can be used on metal brackets, railings, mailboxes, vent covers, switch plates, speaker grilles, shelf supports, cabinet hardware, and other small parts where a dark red-brown finish is needed. It is also practical for PVC trim pieces, shutters, and removable fixtures that need to coordinate with an existing painted surface without relying on brush marks.

Because this color is dark and moderately saturated, finish and substrate conditions can affect the final reading. Coverage may build more slowly over light or uneven bases, and the underlying texture or sanding marks can show more clearly in glossier finishes. If the part will sit beside an older painted surface, differences in sheen and aging can be noticeable even when the color match is close.

Frequently Asked Questions About Match of Benjamin Moore™ CSP-1170 parisian red *

How do I confirm CSP-1170 parisian red before ordering a MyPerfectColor match?

Confirm CSP-1170 parisian red from a physical Benjamin Moore swatch or a known existing painted sample before you order. Screen images can shift, so monitor viewing is not a reliable way to approve the target color. MyPerfectColor matches the selected brand color reference, so the best way to avoid ordering the wrong match is to verify the original color source first.

What sheen should I choose for CSP-1170 parisian red in a MyPerfectColor order?

Sheen is separate from the color itself. A glossier finish on CSP-1170 parisian red will usually look more reflective and can make the color read a little deeper, while a flatter finish will reduce shine and may hide surface texture better. Choose the sheen based on how the item will be used, how much cleanup it needs, and how much wear it will see.

If the painted part will sit next to an existing surface, remember that a different sheen can make the same color appear different even when the color match is correct.

Can CSP-1170 parisian red be ordered in MyPerfectColor custom spray paint for craft or accessory projects?

Yes. A match of Benjamin Moore CSP-1170 parisian red is a practical choice for MyPerfectColor custom spray paint on frames, baskets, shelving, furniture accents, decor pieces, hardware, and other small or removable parts. Spray paint is often the easiest way to coordinate an object to a known paint color when brush application would be awkward.

For Benjamin Moore colors, MyPerfectColor does not offer interior or exterior house paint product options, so use a non-housepaint format for this collection.

How can lighting change the look of CSP-1170 parisian red after a MyPerfectColor match is applied?

Lighting, placement, sheen, and nearby surfaces can all change how CSP-1170 parisian red reads after the match is applied. Warm indoor light, bright daylight, and shadowed areas can make the same painted part look slightly different even when the color match itself is correct.

If the item will be viewed next to an existing painted surface or under difficult lighting, test the match on the actual substrate before finishing the full project.

What surface prep is recommended before applying CSP-1170 parisian red custom spray paint?

Start with a clean, dry surface before applying CSP-1170 parisian red. Remove dust, grease, and loose coating, then lightly scuff sound surfaces when appropriate so the coating can bond better. Mask adjacent areas carefully and test the match on the actual material before painting the full item.

That extra step is especially useful on metal, plastic, wood, and previously coated surfaces, since each can affect adhesion and final appearance differently.

How do I convert Benjamin Moore CSP-1170 parisian red to a different color from another paint company?

While we can provide Benjamin Moore CSP-1170 parisian 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.
