A match of Benjamin Moore 793 Watercolor Blue is a light, cool blue with a soft aqua lean and low chroma. It reads clear but subdued rather than vivid, with a quiet, slightly gray-edged character. MyPerfectColor custom-matched paint to this Benjamin Moore color reference is useful when you need the same pale blue on separate parts or removable components.

This shade works well on spray-painted vents, switch plates, speaker grilles, access panels, brackets, PVC trim, baskets, picture frames, shelving supports, and small hardware pieces when you want a light color that stays visually restrained. It can also be used on mailboxes, railings, shutters, or fixture covers where a pale blue finish is appropriate for a small component or exterior accessory.

Because it is a light, low-chroma color, coverage can be affected by the starting surface, especially over darker or uneven substrates. Expect primer color, film build, and finish to influence how uniform it looks, and allow for extra coats if the base material shows through. On outdoor parts, the lighter tone may also show dirt and wear more readily than a deeper shade.

Frequently Asked Questions About Match of Benjamin Moore™ 793 Watercolor Blue *

Can I order 793 Watercolor Blue as custom spray paint for baskets, frames, or furniture accents?

Yes. A match of Benjamin Moore 793 Watercolor Blue can be ordered as MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to the selected Benjamin Moore color reference for projects like baskets, frames, shelving, decor pieces, hardware, and other small items.

This is a practical choice when you want the object to coordinate to a known color and spray application is easier than brushing. MyPerfectColor is supplying its own paint matched to 793 Watercolor Blue, not the original Benjamin Moore paint product.

How much area will 793 Watercolor Blue cover in spray paint, and how should I estimate how many cans I need?

A typical spray paint can covers about 20 square feet with one coat, but real coverage for 793 Watercolor Blue depends on surface size, texture, prep, spray technique, and how many coats you need.

For rough or porous surfaces, or when you are covering a darker color, plan for extra material. If the item is small and detailed, the can may go further than the square-foot estimate suggests. If you are coating a larger part, calculate the actual surface area and then add room for a second coat and touch-up.

Where can I find the SDS for 793 Watercolor Blue from MyPerfectColor?

The SDS for 793 Watercolor Blue is tied to the MyPerfectColor product and chemistry, not the Benjamin Moore color name alone. You should use the SDS for the exact MyPerfectColor format you are ordering.

MyPerfectColor Safety Data Sheets are available on the MyPerfectColor Safety Data Sheets page. If you are checking compliance before ordering or using the product, review the SDS for the specific product format you plan to buy.

Which finish should I choose for 793 Watercolor Blue if I need a spray paint match?

Choose the finish for 793 Watercolor Blue based on how the item will be used, not just the color itself. Lower sheen finishes usually reduce reflectivity, while higher sheen finishes are generally easier to wipe clean and can look more durable on handled parts.

Keep in mind that gloss level changes how the matched color reads on the finished item. If the 793 Watercolor Blue piece will sit near other painted parts, the finish can affect whether the match looks close in real use, so it is important to order the sheen that fits the project.

Will 793 Watercolor Blue spray paint stick to plastic, and do I need primer?

Plastic can be a good candidate for 793 Watercolor Blue, but plastics vary a lot. Because of that, test the paint on the actual material before committing to the full project.

MyPerfectColor spray paint sticks well to most plastics, and using the MyPerfectColor primer can improve adhesion on difficult surfaces. For low-energy plastics or unknown substrates, surface prep and a test panel are the best way to reduce risk before painting the finished part.

How do I convert Benjamin Moore 793 Watercolor Blue to a different color from another paint company?

While we can provide Benjamin Moore 793 Watercolor Blue 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.
