Find everything you need to know about Benjamin Moore Command paint in this guide!
Where to Use Command Paint
Command paint is ideal for industrial and residential projects where minimal disruption is essential. It’s a popular product for facility maintenance and property management that’s used everywhere from factories to healthcare facilities. Command dries to touch in 15 minutes and is traffic-ready in 24 hours!
This incredibly versatile product can be used on almost any surface you can think of, including handrails, shelving, doors, floors, stairs, ramps, safety markers, curbs, cabinets, awnings, shutters, molding, and piping. While Command is a common choice for industrial applications, it’s also used for residential projects that require a durable paint product with ultra-fast dry time.
Benjamin Moore Command vs. Advance
Benjamin Moore Command and Advance share several recommended applications, including cabinets and millwork. So which is better?
Advance paint is the best cabinet paint due to its excellent leveling and ease of application. Advance creates a smooth, furniture-quality coating that just can’t be replicated by other products. However, this waterborne alkyd enamel paint demands a long dry time.
If a space needs to be back in use as soon as possible, Command is a great option for a hard, durable coating that will dry quickly. Just remember that this fast-drying paint must be applied carefully to avoid brush/roller marks.
Benjamin Moore Command Finishes & Colors
Command paint comes in satin or gloss sheens to accommodate a wide range of projects and substrates. Both finishes result in a highly durable coating that stands up to frequent use and exposure to the elements. Choose Command paint in any of Benjamin Moore’s 3,500+ colors for a rich finish that lasts!
Satin
Satin paint is a popular, low-gloss sheen that adds rich definition and creates a washable coating without a high level of shine. Although it’s more forgiving than gloss paint, remember that a satin finish still requires careful preparation and application to avoid highlighting surface imperfections, lap marks, or brush strokes. Command satin paint can be custom-ordered in any of Benjamin Moore’s authentic 3,500+ paint colors. For detailed product specifications, see this data sheet for Command paint in Satin.

Gloss
Known for its mirror-like finish, a glossy sheen is extremely durable and easy to clean. Just remember that surfaces will need to be thoroughly prepared before being painted with a glossy finish, and careful application is necessary to avoid lap marks (this paint dries fast!) Command Gloss paint is available in any of Benjamin Moore’s authentic 3,500+ paint colors. For detailed product specifications, see this data sheet for Command paint in Gloss.

Flexible Durability
Command paint offers superior abrasion resistance that isn’t just durable — it’s actually flexible! Command successfully resists cracking and peeling even when subjected to pressure and movement. This advanced feature is one of the reasons that Command is such a reliable product for industrial spaces that are likely to experience regular foot traffic and movement of products or machinery.
Block Resistance
It’s difficult to paint doors, windows, or cabinets on a time crunch — even if the finish looks dry, other paints can stick to themselves and become damaged if returned to service too quickly. Command paint’s advanced, tack-free formula creates a block-resistant coating within just 1 hour of application. This premium product ensures that doors, windows, cabinets, and other highly-used surfaces are back in operation quickly — with a lasting finish that won’t be in danger of sticking. Command paint helps keep your project running ahead of schedule and your customers impressed!
