A match of Benjamin Moore 1404 Crocus reads as a subdued lavender-gray rather than a clear purple. The blue-leaning undertone keeps it cool, while the moderate chroma softens the color so it looks quiet instead of vivid. With an LRV of 43.02, it sits in a medium range and has enough depth to feel grounded without becoming especially dark.

As MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to the selected brand color, this shade works well on small parts that need a restrained violet tone: speaker grilles, vent covers, switch plates, outlet covers, shelf brackets, picture frames, rail components, mailboxes, and hardware on furniture or cabinetry. It can also be used on PVC, metal access panels, and other removable pieces where spray application is the practical way to carry a consistent color across multiple parts.

Because the color is moderately deep and not especially high-chroma, it often covers more evenly than a bright purple, but surface condition still matters. Gloss level, substrate color, and texture can change how much the gray side or violet side shows, especially on plastic or worn metal. Proper prep and full film build help keep the match consistent from part to part.

Frequently Asked Questions About Match of Benjamin Moore™ 1404 Crocus *

What sheen should I choose for 1404 Crocus Benjamin Moore color match?

Choose the sheen based on how the item will be used and how much surface reflection you want. Lower sheen finishes usually hide texture and surface flaws better, while higher sheen finishes reflect more light and can make a matched color like 1404 Crocus read a little differently on the finished item.

For Benjamin Moore colors, MyPerfectColor supplies custom-matched paint in formats such as spray paint rather than interior or exterior house paint options. Confirm the sheen before ordering because sheen is part of the final appearance, not just the color.

How much 1404 Crocus spray paint do I need for my project?

Coverage depends on the size of the item, the surface texture, how the paint is applied, and how many coats are needed. A typical spray paint can covers about 20 square feet with one coat, but real coverage can be lower on rough, porous, or detailed parts.

If you are painting frames, hardware, vents, or several small pieces in 1404 Crocus, estimate the total surface area and plan for extra material if you expect more than one coat or if the base color is dark. MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to the selected Benjamin Moore color is meant for coordinated parts and smaller projects, not for choosing by room-size assumptions.

How do I confirm that 1404 Crocus is the right Benjamin Moore color before ordering?

Confirm 1404 Crocus from a physical Benjamin Moore swatch or a known existing painted reference, not from a screen alone. Monitor and phone colors can shift, so a digital view is not a reliable way to approve the target color.

MyPerfectColor matches to the original brand color standard for 1404 Crocus, so it is important to verify the exact reference before you order. If you are matching an existing surface, remember that age, sheen, and texture can make the new match look different next to the old coating even when the color reference is correct.

Can I use 1404 Crocus Benjamin Moore color match on baskets, frames, or other accessories?

Yes. A match of Benjamin Moore 1404 Crocus is a practical choice for spray-painted items such as baskets, frames, shelving, brackets, knobs, switch covers, and similar parts when the goal is to coordinate the object to a known Benjamin Moore color.

Surface prep still matters. Clean the item, let it dry, and scuff or prime as needed for the substrate, especially on metal, plastic, wood, or wicker. MyPerfectColor can supply a custom match of 1404 Crocus in spray paint or another suitable specialty format for this kind of project.

Can I return a custom-made 1404 Crocus Benjamin Moore color match if I ordered the wrong finish or quantity?

Custom-made color matches should be selected carefully because they are not returnable or refundable. Before ordering 1404 Crocus, confirm the Benjamin Moore color reference, the product format, the sheen, and the quantity you need.

If you are matching a part that sits next to an existing painted surface, be aware that aging, gloss, and texture differences can change how the new coating reads after application. Verifying those details first helps reduce ordering mistakes.

How do I convert Benjamin Moore 1404 Crocus to a different color from another paint company?

While we can provide Benjamin Moore 1404 Crocus 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.
