Gustavian Gray DEGR76
Benjamin Moore already has the formula for Gustavian Gray, so we mix the exact color at our North Scottsdale counter, in the line the surface needs. Same color, better paint. If you’d rather choose one of Benjamin Moore’s own colors, the five closest are below. Gustavian Gray is currently approved in 2 Arizona HOA schemes we track.

DEGR76 Gustavian Gray is a mid-tone cool gray (LRV ≈ 31). Most Arizona HOA body colors are mid-tones, and a mid-tone body blends with the Sonoran landscape. At LRV 31 it sits inside all three municipal overlay caps: Scottsdale ESL (35), Paradise Valley Hillside (38) and Scottsdale Foothills (40). Mid-tones run slightly warmer in west sun than lighter bodies, so we use Element Guard or Regal Select for any south or west elevation.

The Benjamin Moore line we would use
Aura Exterior or Regal Select Exterior, in soft gloss
Front doors and shutters take the most direct sun and the most handling, and soft gloss is the finish we put on them. On a door that takes full afternoon sun, we choose Aura Exterior. Regal Select Exterior holds a color like this well on a shaded entry. Bring the Benjamin Moore code from any of the five swatches above and we’ll mix that exact color at the counter.
