HOME · PAINT MATCH

Match the color, then take a real specification to the store.

Enter a target manually, import a supported device reading, or sample several clean areas from a photo. HexCheck filters unstable samples and ranks manufacturer catalog colors using CIEDE2000.

1 · CONFIGURE

Set the target, store and conditions

Catalog selection changes the manufacturer colors being compared. Benjamin Moore uses official ASE palettes. Behr uses official uniform color chips from its February 10, 2020 professional package; confirm current store availability.

Photo correction is an estimate, not a calibration. A neutral reference photographed in the same light produces more reliable results.

Selected catalog color

A physical sample is still required. Displays, bulbs, surrounding materials, texture, product, base and finish all change perceived paint color.

2 · SAMPLE

Sample clean areas of the same surface

HexCheck trims highlight and shadow pixels inside each sample, rejects highly variable patches, and excludes sample points that disagree strongly with the group.

The color number identifies a manufacturer catalog color, not a tint formula. For Behr’s 2020 chip catalog, confirm that the color number is still available. Always retrieve the official color number in the intended product and finish, then test a physical sample before buying the full quantity.
