A very dark slate-gray, SC-102 Slate sits close to charcoal with a slight green bias and very low chroma. It reads muted rather than colorful, and the low LRV gives it a deep, light-absorbing appearance once applied.

MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to the selected Behr color can be used on metal railings, vent covers, switch plates, speaker grilles, brackets, mailbox parts, PVC trim pieces, and other small hardware where a dark neutral finish needs to carry across different materials. It is also practical for removable components, display parts, and maintenance items that are easier to spray than brush.

Because the color is so dark, finish and substrate condition can change the way it reads. Smooth, well-prepared surfaces usually look cleaner, while texture, patching, or sheen differences can stand out more clearly in a near-black slate like this. On lighter substrates, coverage may build efficiently, but even application and proper film build still matter for a consistent result. Lighting can also pull the green undertone forward or push it back toward charcoal.

Frequently Asked Questions About Match of Behr™ SC-102 Slate *

How do I confirm the right Behr SC-102 Slate color before ordering a MyPerfectColor match?

Confirm Behr SC-102 Slate from a physical swatch or a known existing color reference, not from a screen image alone. MyPerfectColor matches to the selected brand color reference, so the target color should be verified before you place the order.

If you already have the correct SC-102 Slate reference, you can order a MyPerfectColor custom-matched paint in a practical format for your project, including spray paint for small parts and removable items.

Will Behr SC-102 Slate look the same after a MyPerfectColor match is applied in different lighting or next to other surfaces?

Not always. Even when the color match is correct, Behr SC-102 Slate can read differently after application depending on lighting, sheen, placement, and the color or texture of nearby surfaces.

This matters most when the painted item sits beside an existing finish, since the finished look is affected by the whole surface, not the color code alone.

How long does MyPerfectColor Behr SC-102 Slate spray paint take to dry, recoat, and handle?

For MyPerfectColor spray paint matched to Behr SC-102 Slate, dry-to-touch happens within minutes, recoating is typically done in 1 to 2 hours, and full cure takes about two weeks.

Dry-to-touch, recoat, and full handling readiness are different stages, so plan your project around the longer cure time if the part will be installed, handled, or stacked soon after painting.

How much Behr SC-102 Slate paint do I need for my project?

Coverage depends on the surface size, texture, hiding power, application method, and how many coats Behr SC-102 Slate will need. A typical can of spray paint covers about 20 square feet with one coat.

Other MyPerfectColor paint formats typically cover between 400 and 600 square feet, so the right quantity depends on whether you are painting a small fixture, a removable part, or a larger surface.

What prep is needed before applying Behr SC-102 Slate to metal or an existing coating?

Before applying a MyPerfectColor match of Behr SC-102 Slate to metal or over an existing coating, clean the surface well and scuff it so the new coating can grip properly. Check for rust, contamination, or loose material first, since those conditions can affect adhesion and the final result.

The gloss, texture, and condition of the old coating can also change how the finished color reads, especially if you are coating only one part of a larger assembled item.

How do I convert Behr SC-102 Slate to a different color from another paint company?

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.
