Benjamin Moore Swatches/Site

When you were looking for colors did you find the swatch or the website (color viewer) to be more accurate to the color of the actual paint?

Some of the colors on their website look completely different from the swatches to me.

TIA!

You can't really go by anything you see online...there are too many factors involved that could change the color's appearance (your monitor settings, etc.)

Your best bet is to look at the paint chips offered at the store. They're pretty true to color.

I agree. I'd just take a trip to the store.

Thanks! I went to the store and bought some paint already, I chose according to the chips in the store- if BM paint is true to that, then I'll be happyChat Icon

Yes you can't really go by online IMO. I found the BM chips to be very true to color ( shockingly true in fact!)
