A match of Benjamin Moore HC-167 Amherst Gray reads as a deep, muted gray with a quiet olive-brown undertone. It is low-chroma rather than clean or bright, so the color tends to look grounded and slightly earthy instead of crisp.

MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to this color can be used on vents, switch covers, speaker grilles, brackets, railings, mailboxes, shutters, hardware, and small shelving parts where a subdued gray-green tone is needed on metal, plastic, wood, or painted surfaces. It also fits removable items such as frames, baskets, and furniture accents when you want the parts to recede visually rather than read as a stronger accent.

Because the color is fairly dark, surface prep and finish choice matter. Gloss or satin can make texture, sanding marks, and substrate variation more noticeable, while flatter finishes usually soften those effects. On patchy or uneven bases, a darker gray like this can still show sheen differences or thin spots if coverage is not built evenly.

Frequently Asked Questions About Match of Benjamin Moore™ HC-167 Amherst Gray *

How much MyPerfectColor spray paint matched to HC-167 Amherst Gray do I need for my project?

For MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to HC-167 Amherst Gray, a typical can covers about 20 square feet with one coat. Actual coverage can be lower on rough, porous, or highly textured surfaces, and it can also change based on how heavily you spray and how many coats the part needs.

If you are coating multiple pieces, large panels, or an item that needs extra hiding, plan for more than one can. For Benjamin Moore colors like HC-167 Amherst Gray, MyPerfectColor offers custom-matched paint in spray and other specialty formats, so it is best to match the format to the size and shape of the job before ordering.

Where can I find the SDS for HC-167 Amherst Gray from MyPerfectColor?

The Safety Data Sheet is tied to the specific MyPerfectColor product and chemistry, not to the HC-167 Amherst Gray color name alone. That means you should use the SDS for the exact MyPerfectColor item you plan to order.

You can find MyPerfectColor Safety Data Sheets here: https://www.myperfectcolor.com/Safety-Data-Sheets/33970.htm

Can HC-167 Amherst Gray be used on plastic parts with MyPerfectColor spray paint?

Yes, MyPerfectColor spray paint matched to HC-167 Amherst Gray can work on many plastic items, but plastics vary a lot. Smooth or low-energy plastics can need different prep, and test application on the actual part is important before you commit to the full job.

For better adhesion, clean the surface well, prep it correctly, and use the MyPerfectColor primer when needed. That matters most on slick plastics, handled parts, and items that need a more durable bond than a direct spray-only application can provide.

How should I confirm HC-167 Amherst Gray before ordering a MyPerfectColor match?

Confirm HC-167 Amherst Gray from a physical Benjamin Moore swatch or another known color reference before ordering. Screen images can shift with device settings, lighting, and display calibration, so they are not reliable enough for an order decision.

MyPerfectColor matches the original brand color standard, not the look of an aged or sun-faded surface. If you are trying to coordinate with an existing painted item, compare against the actual surface or a trusted physical reference so you order the right match the first time.

MyPerfectColor spray paint matched to HC-167 Amherst Gray is typically dry to the touch within minutes, ready for recoating in 1 to 2 hours, and fully cured in about 2 weeks.

Dry to the touch, ready to recoat, and fully cured are different stages. If the part needs assembly, installation, or heavy handling, it is best to wait for full cure before putting the item into service.

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.
