Sherwin‑Williams color · mixed in Benjamin Moore
We have the Sherwin-Williams formula for Cocoa Berry, so we mix the exact color in Benjamin Moore 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.
About this color
Sheen: Matte or eggshell on interior walls. At this depth, eggshell takes scuffs and touch-ups better than matte. Flat on exterior stucco; soft gloss on doors and shutters.
SW9078 Cocoa Berry is a deep, muted greige (LRV ≈ 27). Deep, muted body colors are common in Arizona desert palettes. At LRV 27 it sits inside all three municipal overlay caps: Scottsdale ESL (35), Paradise Valley Hillside (38) and Scottsdale Foothills (40). Element Guard handles the heat load on a body; for a front door, Aura Exterior or Regal Select in soft gloss.
The Benjamin Moore line we would use
On a stucco body we use flat, because sheen on a sunlit wall reads as glare. Element Guard is the one for a summer repaint: it forms a sound film in the heat and is rain-ready in about an hour. The rest of the year, Regal Select Exterior is our standard repaint. Bring the Benjamin Moore code from any of the five swatches above and we’ll mix that exact color at the counter. Swatches marked interior only, or not recommended for exterior, are for indoor work.
Bring the Sherwin-Williams code or a Benjamin Moore code from the swatches above, and we’ll match the line to the job.
