A match of Benjamin Moore 2163-30 Penny is a medium-deep brown with a warm, coppery-orange undertone. It reads earthy rather than bright, with enough chroma to separate it from a flat neutral but not enough to shift into a clear orange.

MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to 2163-30 Penny can be used on railings, brackets, vent covers, switch plates, mailbox parts, speaker grilles, PVC trim pieces, shelf supports, and furniture hardware. It also works for frames, baskets, and other small sprayable items where a warm brown finish needs to stay consistent across metal, plastic, wood, or previously coated surfaces after proper preparation.

With an LRV of 17.75, this is a fairly dark color, so substrate prep and film build can matter. Lighter or uneven bases may show through if coverage is thin, and gloss level can change how much the brown reads as smooth and rich versus flatter and more subdued. On exterior parts, the color's warmth may hold up well, but surface condition and coating thickness will still affect the final result.

Frequently Asked Questions About Match of Benjamin Moore™ 2163-30 Penny *

Can I order Benjamin Moore 2163-30 Penny as MyPerfectColor spray paint for baskets, frames, shelving, or decor pieces?

Yes. MyPerfectColor can make a custom spray paint match of Benjamin Moore 2163-30 Penny for projects like baskets, frames, shelving, furniture accents, and other small items where spray application is practical.

This is a MyPerfectColor match to the selected Benjamin Moore color reference, not Benjamin Moore's original paint product. For best results, make sure the item is cleaned, lightly prepared, and coated in the format that fits the surface and the finish you want.

Will MyPerfectColor 2163-30 Penny spray paint work on plastic parts or other low-energy surfaces?

MyPerfectColor spray paint can adhere well to many plastics, but plastics vary a lot, so testing on the actual part is important before you paint the full item.

For Benjamin Moore 2163-30 Penny on plastic, surface prep matters. If adhesion is a concern, MyPerfectColor primer can help improve bonding before the color coat. This is especially useful on smooth, flexible, or unfamiliar plastic parts where a test panel is the safest way to confirm the result.

Which sheen should I choose for Benjamin Moore 2163-30 Penny when ordering MyPerfectColor paint?

Choose the sheen based on how the item will be used, how much cleaning it needs, and how reflective you want the finished surface to be. Higher gloss usually gives more durability and easier cleanup, while lower gloss reduces shine and can make surface texture less noticeable.

Sheen also changes how Benjamin Moore 2163-30 Penny reads on the finished item. The same color can look different in matte, satin, semi-gloss, or gloss, so select the sheen that matches the use of the part you are coating, not just the color name.

Where can I find the SDS for MyPerfectColor paint matched to Benjamin Moore 2163-30 Penny?

The SDS is tied to the MyPerfectColor product and chemistry, not to the Benjamin Moore 2163-30 Penny color name by itself.

For safety and compliance information, use the MyPerfectColor Safety Data Sheets page for the specific product you plan to order. If you are comparing formats, check the SDS for the exact MyPerfectColor paint type, since spray paint and other specialty products can have different documentation.

What should I confirm before ordering custom-made Benjamin Moore 2163-30 Penny from MyPerfectColor?

Before ordering, confirm the exact Benjamin Moore color reference, the MyPerfectColor product format, the sheen, and the quantity you need. That helps avoid ordering the wrong match or the wrong finish for the part you are painting.

Custom-made color matches are made specifically for your order and are not returnable or refundable, so it is important to verify the details for Benjamin Moore 2163-30 Penny before checkout.

How do I convert Benjamin Moore 2163-30 Penny to a different color from another paint company?

While we can provide Benjamin Moore 2163-30 Penny 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.
