[quote=Anonymous]My experience is that you can get paint colors matched to Benjamin Moore that are very, very close, but not exactly the same. In other words, if you hold the swatch up to the finished wall, it will probably look the same, but if you try to touch up a wall that was painted in Benjamin Moore with a matched Duron paint (or whatever) it won't match exactly. FWIW, we've painted several houses ourselves, and we always use Benjamin Moore for the trim, because it really does cover better and is more durable. We use Lowe's brand for the walls, because it really doesn't make that much difference there (unless you're painting a stairwell, or some other high-traffic area). [/quote]
