A match of Benjamin Moore 1132 Old Canal is a muted, medium-deep warm brown with orange-red undertones. With an LRV of 21.5, it reads fairly dark, and the moderate chroma keeps it earthy rather than clean or bright.

MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to 1132 Old Canal can be useful on shutters, vents, railings, mailbox parts, speaker grilles, switch covers, brackets, frames, shelving, and hardware. It is a practical match for small or removable pieces that need to coordinate with an existing color reference while still being easy to spray on metal, plastic, wood, or previously coated items after proper prep.

Because this color is relatively deep and warm, surface condition and finish can affect how it reads. Smooth substrates tend to show the brown-orange undertone more clearly, while rough or textured surfaces can make it look a little drier and less saturated. On patched or uneven pieces, sheen differences and thin film build may be noticeable, so even prep and consistent coverage matter.

Frequently Asked Questions About Match of Benjamin Moore™ 1132 Old Canal *

How do I confirm that Benjamin Moore 1132 Old Canal is the right color before ordering a MyPerfectColor match?

Confirm 1132 Old Canal from a physical swatch, a known existing painted part, or another reliable original-brand reference before you order. Screen viewing can shift the color, so it is not enough to verify the match on a monitor.

MyPerfectColor makes a custom-matched paint to the selected Benjamin Moore color reference, not the original Benjamin Moore paint product. For Benjamin Moore colors, choose the reference carefully first, then order the MyPerfectColor match in the format you need.

Which sheen should I choose for Benjamin Moore 1132 Old Canal when ordering MyPerfectColor spray paint?

The right sheen depends on the part you are painting and how much wear it will see. Lower sheen finishes usually hide surface texture and prep marks better, while higher sheen finishes reflect more light, clean more easily, and can make defects or substrate variation more visible.

For 1132 Old Canal, choose the sheen based on the item, not just the color name. MyPerfectColor offers matched color in specialty formats, including custom spray paint, and the finish you order will affect how the color reads on the finished piece.

What spray application technique works best for Benjamin Moore 1132 Old Canal on small parts, vents, or fixtures?

Use light, even coats and keep the can moving so each pass overlaps slightly with the previous one. Heavy passes can cause runs, uneven sheen, and a muddy-looking build, especially on a color like 1132 Old Canal where film thickness can change the final read.

For small objects such as vents, grilles, covers, brackets, or fixtures, it is better to build coverage gradually than to try to cover in one wet coat. Follow the spray distance and dry-time directions for the product you ordered, and let each coat set before adding the next.

Can I use Benjamin Moore 1132 Old Canal on plastic parts, and what prep should I do first?

Plastic can be painted, but different plastics behave very differently, so test 1132 Old Canal on the actual part before painting the full item. MyPerfectColor spray paint sticks well to most plastics, but difficult or low-energy plastics may need better prep and the MyPerfectColor primer to improve adhesion.

This is a common approach for items like PVC pipe, vents, speaker grilles, access panels, and other removable parts that need to coordinate with a known paint color. Clean the surface first, and if the plastic is glossy or slick, scuffing and primer can reduce the chance of adhesion problems.

What prep does Benjamin Moore 1132 Old Canal need on metal or over an existing coating?

Clean the surface first, remove grease or contamination, and make sure any old coating is sound before applying a match of 1132 Old Canal. If the metal is rusty, peeling, or chalky, those issues need to be addressed before painting or the new finish may not hold or look even.

Gloss, texture, and the condition of the old coating can all affect the final appearance, so scuffing a shiny surface and using the right primer can help. If you are coating only part of an existing surface, remember that the new paint may look different next to aged material even when the color match is correct.

How quickly will I receive my paint matched to Benjamin Moore 1132 Old Canal?

How do I convert Benjamin Moore 1132 Old Canal to a different color from another paint company?

While we can provide Benjamin Moore 1132 Old Canal 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.
