Available for free from your local Benjamin Moore store, Display Chips are how most homeowners get started on their colour search.

Tips for Using Display Chips

• Pull and play Cut them, fold them, leave them on your walls…use Display Chips to narrow down which colour family you’ll eventually choose.
• Going darker? Lighter? Display Chips are great for seeing different colour values, as they are typically organized by gradations of colour.
• Stack them up Layering and observing helps you compare nuances in warm vs. cool colours and undertones.
• Graduate Once you narrow down a few favourites, move to Paint Colour Samples and/or Colour Swatches.

While Display Chips may be Benjamin Moore’s smallest colour swatches, they remain a vital starting point for narrowing down colour.

Benjamin Moore^® Paint Colour Samples, available in 3,500+ colours, help you confidently test and choose a paint colour you’ll love. Liquid samples are real paint but remember that they are for interior paint colour representation only, not for your final painting project.*

Our 236 ml plastic, screw-top Paint Colour Samples:

• Cover approximately one 0.6 m x 0.6 m (2'x2'), two-coat area.
• Come in an interior, eggshell finish.
• Are available through your locally owned retailer or online.

Tips for Using Benjamin Moore^® Paint Colour Samples

• Brush out at least two coats to get the most accurate colour depiction.
• Brush directly on your wall, especially if your wall is white or a light neutral—the new colour won't compete against your existing one.
• Consider brushing on a white foam core board, so you can move the colour around the room throughout the day to see how the colour appears in different lighting.
• For exterior colour sampling, use white foam core board since liquid samples are formulated for interior use only.

If you don’t want to paint, a Colour Swatch is a great alternative to Paint Colour Samples. A quick and easy way to view paint colour, Colour Swatches are…

• Paper samples that are larger than Display Chips.
• 10 cm x 20 cm (4” x 8”) in size, with each swatch dedicated to one paint colour.
• Available in an eggshell finish.
• For purchase online only.

Tips for Using Colour Swatches

• Use painter’s tape to safely adhere the Colour Swatch to the wall.
• Observe how colours appear in different lighting in both artificial and natural light sources.
• Compare your colour choices to one another in different light sources as well.
• Keep your Colour Swatches up for a while for a time-tested approach.

Tips for Using Peel & Stick Colour Samples
