A match of Benjamin Moore CO-70 Midnight Rain is a very dark blue-gray with a cool, slightly violet-leaning cast and low chroma. It reads as a muted charcoal-blue rather than a clear gray, with enough color to show the blue side without becoming bright.

MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to the selected Benjamin Moore color reference is useful on smaller sprayable parts where a dark, subdued color needs to be carried through consistently. It can work on vents, speaker grilles, switch covers, bracketry, railings, metal shelving parts, mailbox hardware, shutters, PVC trim pieces, and fixture covers, especially when the item needs to read as a deep blue-gray instead of a stark black.

Because this is a very dark color, film build and sheen have a noticeable effect on how deep it looks. Dark colors can also show substrate contrast, edge wear, and surface texture more readily, so uneven prep or a light base may remain visible until coverage is complete. On smooth, glossy parts, the blue-gray undertone may read a little clearer; on rougher surfaces it can move closer to charcoal.

Frequently Asked Questions About Match of Benjamin Moore™ CO-70 Midnight Rain *

How do I confirm CO-70 Midnight Rain by Benjamin Moore is the right color before I order a MyPerfectColor match?

Confirm CO-70 Midnight Rain from a physical swatch, fan deck, or another known original Benjamin Moore color reference whenever possible. Screen viewing alone can shift the color, so it is not reliable for final approval.

MyPerfectColor matches the selected Benjamin Moore color reference, not an aged painted surface or an on-screen approximation. If you are matching an existing part, verify that the target is truly CO-70 Midnight Rain before ordering.

How much MyPerfectColor spray paint should I order for Benjamin Moore CO-70 Midnight Rain?

A typical can of MyPerfectColor spray paint covers about 20 square feet with one coat, but real coverage depends on surface texture, porosity, hiding power, spray technique, and how many coats you need.

If you are coating a rough, porous, or dark surface, plan for extra product. For a larger project, it is safer to estimate coverage by the actual part size and then add margin for test spray and second coats.

Can I spray Benjamin Moore CO-70 Midnight Rain on plastic, and what should I do first?

MyPerfectColor spray paint can stick well to many plastics, but plastics vary a lot, so the best approach is to test on the actual material before committing to the full part.

Clean the surface thoroughly, remove oils or release residue, and use the MyPerfectColor primer if you want better adhesion. A small test spray is especially important on unfamiliar plastics or molded parts.

What prep should I do before applying CO-70 Midnight Rain over metal or an existing coating?

Before applying a match of Benjamin Moore CO-70 Midnight Rain to metal or a previously coated item, clean off dirt, grease, rust, and any loose or failing paint. If the surface is glossy or smooth, a light scuff can help the new coating bond.

The condition of the old coating matters. Gloss, texture, contamination, and edge wear can all change how the finished color reads, so a test spot is the safest way to confirm adhesion and appearance.

Where can I find the SDS for MyPerfectColor CO-70 Midnight Rain?

The Safety Data Sheet is tied to the MyPerfectColor product and chemistry, not to the Benjamin Moore color name alone. Use the MyPerfectColor Safety Data Sheets page and select the exact product format you are ordering.

If you are comparing formats, check the SDS for the specific item you plan to buy, since spray paint and other specialty products can have different safety information.

How do I convert Benjamin Moore CO-70 Midnight Rain to a different color from another paint company?

While we can provide Benjamin Moore CO-70 Midnight Rain 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.
