Questions about Benjamin Moore colors

What is the most popular Benjamin Moore paint color?

Counting US searches that name Benjamin Moore and the color together, White Dove OC-17 is looked up most, then Swiss Coffee OC-45 and Chantilly Lace OC-65. The pages here rank colors by that demand, not by sales, so the order can differ from the brand's own best-seller list.

What is Benjamin Moore's Color of the Year for 2026?

Silhouette AF-655, a deep espresso brown with charcoal in it, announced in October 2025. It has an LRV of 10, close to black on a wall, so most people use it on one wall, on cabinets or on a front door rather than around a whole room.

Can Sherwin-Williams match Benjamin Moore colors?

A Sherwin-Williams store can tint its paint to a Benjamin Moore chip, but that is a match to the chip, not the same paint, and it can land a shade off. An existing Sherwin-Williams shade can also be a starting point for sampling. The two people ask for most, Swiss Coffee OC-45 and White Dove OC-17, have no Sherwin-Williams version. The nearest by measurement: for Swiss Coffee it is Cotton SW 9581, a near twin; for White Dove it is Cold Foam SW 9504, very close. Every Benjamin Moore page here ends with its closest Sherwin-Williams colors.

Where can I buy Benjamin Moore paint?

Only through independently owned paint, decorating and hardware stores, including many Ace Hardware locations. Home Depot, Lowe's, Walmart and Target do not carry it. The store finder on benjaminmoore.com lists the nearest dealer.
