A match of Benjamin Moore OR-426 Cosmos is a deep gray with a cool cast and very low chroma. It reads as restrained rather than colorful, with a slight blue-violet bias that can become more noticeable in different light. With an LRV of 9.2, it is a dark shade that will appear quite deep once applied.

MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to the selected brand color can be used on small parts and fixtures where a muted dark gray is needed: HVAC vents, speaker grilles, switch plates, metal brackets, railings, mailboxes, cabinet hardware, shelving supports, and PVC or trim pieces that need to coordinate with an existing painted component. It is also practical for maker projects, display parts, and equipment covers that call for a quiet, technical-looking finish.

Because this is a dark color, surface condition and sheen can affect the final result. Scratches, edges, and texture often show more clearly in deep colors, and the finish build can make the cool cast read a little softer or firmer. On porous or uneven substrates, prep and primer help keep the appearance even, and a test spray on the actual material is useful before coating the full part.

Frequently Asked Questions About Match of Benjamin Moore™ OR-426 Cosmos *

Where do I find the SDS for OR-426 Cosmos by Benjamin Moore?

For OR-426 Cosmos, the SDS is tied to the specific MyPerfectColor product and chemistry you order, not to the Benjamin Moore color name by itself. Check the MyPerfectColor Safety Data Sheets for the exact product format you plan to buy, such as spray paint or another specialty format.

If you are comparing options, use the SDS for the MyPerfectColor match of OR-426 Cosmos rather than assuming the brand color name alone is enough to identify the safety document.

How does finish affect the way a match of OR-426 Cosmos looks after it is applied?

Finish changes how much light the coating reflects, so a match of OR-426 Cosmos can read lighter, darker, or more muted depending on sheen and surface texture. The same color formula can look different on a smooth metal part than on a textured or porous item.

When you order, choose the finish that fits the object being painted, because sheen is part of the final appearance and can affect whether the color looks consistent with the rest of the item.

What spray technique helps a match of OR-426 Cosmos apply more evenly?

Use light, even coats and keep the can moving so the color builds gradually instead of in one heavy pass. A steady distance, consistent overlap, and multiple thin coats usually reduce runs, uneven sheen, and heavy color buildup.

That approach is especially helpful with a match of OR-426 Cosmos because darker colors can show application differences if the paint is applied too wet or too heavily. Let each coat flash off before adding the next one.

What kinds of projects are a good fit for custom spray paint matched to OR-426 Cosmos?

Custom spray paint matched to OR-426 Cosmos is useful for trim details, fixtures, railings, vents, pipes, hardware, access panels, and other parts that are awkward to brush. It is also a practical choice for removable items like accessories, covers, and small components that need to coordinate with a known color reference.

For Benjamin Moore colors, MyPerfectColor offers custom-matched options in non-housepaint formats rather than interior or exterior house paint. That makes a spray format a good fit when you want the color matched on a separate part, piece, or accessory.

What should I confirm before ordering a match of OR-426 Cosmos by Benjamin Moore?

Before ordering a match of OR-426 Cosmos, confirm the color reference, the MyPerfectColor product format, the finish, and the quantity you need. Custom-made color orders should be checked carefully because the wrong format or sheen can create a result that does not fit the project.

For Benjamin Moore colors, MyPerfectColor does not offer interior or exterior house paint product options, so make sure you are selecting the non-housepaint format that matches your application.

Can I return a custom match of OR-426 Cosmos if I choose the wrong product or sheen?

Custom-made matches of OR-426 Cosmos are not returnable or refundable, so it is important to verify the color reference, product type, sheen, and quantity before placing the order. If the order is made to the wrong specification, MyPerfectColor cannot treat it like an off-the-shelf item.

If you are unsure, confirm the exact match you need before checkout so the MyPerfectColor product you receive is the one that fits your project.

How do I convert Benjamin Moore OR-426 Cosmos to a different color from another paint company?

While we can provide Benjamin Moore OR-426 Cosmos 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.
