Match of Benjamin Moore™ 680 Opal Essence *

Choose the sheen based on how the part will be used, not just on the color name. With 680 Opal Essence, a higher gloss finish will look more reflective and is usually easier to wipe clean, while a flatter finish will reduce glare and can be more forgiving on small surface flaws.

Keep in mind that the same match of 680 Opal Essence can read a little differently as sheen changes. If the item must visually line up with an existing painted surface, order the sheen that best matches the part you are coating and test on the actual substrate if possible.

The Safety Data Sheet is tied to the MyPerfectColor product and chemistry, not to the Benjamin Moore color name by itself. If you are ordering a match of 680 Opal Essence, use the SDS for the specific MyPerfectColor product you select.

MyPerfectColor Safety Data Sheets are listed on the MyPerfectColor Safety Data Sheets page. Check that page for the exact product family you are buying so you are reviewing the correct safety information.

For 680 Opal Essence in MyPerfectColor spray paint, expect the paint to be dry to the touch within minutes, ready for a recoat in about one to two hours, and fully cured in about two weeks.

Dry to the touch does not mean ready for heavy handling. If the part will be assembled, stacked, or put into service soon after painting, plan for the full cure time so the finish is less likely to mark or scuff.

Yes, MyPerfectColor spray paint matched to 680 Opal Essence can work well on many plastics, but plastic types vary a lot. Some plastics accept paint easily, while others are low-energy surfaces that need more prep to get reliable adhesion.

Clean the part well, test on the actual plastic if you can, and use the MyPerfectColor primer if you want to improve adhesion on difficult plastics. A small test on the real part is the safest way to confirm how the match will behave before you coat the whole item.

Before spraying a match of 680 Opal Essence on metal, remove dirt, oil, wax, and any loose rust or failing coating. If the surface already has sound paint, clean it thoroughly and scuff it so the new coating has better mechanical grip.

The condition of the old coating matters. Gloss, texture, and wear can all affect how the new finish looks, so the final appearance of 680 Opal Essence may differ from a smooth reference if the substrate is rough or uneven.

While we can provide Benjamin Moore 680 Opal Essence 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.
