In case it's unclear, the achievement has to be done on a stage where there are gray and beige spaces. As you make matches on these spaces they change color from gray (steel) -> beige (wood) -> blue.
Your goal is to turn all the beige (wood) spaces blue before turning any of the gray (steel) spaces beige, meaning simply, if it's grey, just stay away from it.
This stage is useful because there are only nine grey spaces and they are at the bottom of the board and, as such, easier to avoid.
For power ups, I used Submarine controls, which turns some pieces into compasses, as my active (it's the power up on the bottom right), and Ancient Mechanism, which gives more time on the level, as my passive (it's the first power up in the second row). Honestly, you can probably use any passive, but I'd advise against those which give you more Tesla charge or otherwise summon lightning. If the lightning turns the steel pieces, the attempt will fail, so we want that not to be an issue.
Take your time with the level. Since the achievement pops as soon as all the beige pieces are blue, there's no need to worry about earning the medal. This is why ancient mechanism is helpful - it pretty much entirely removes time stress.
The reason why I choose Submarine Controls is twofold:
1) Creating compasses will allow you to match pieces that don't otherwise match, so you'll have more flexibility.
and
2) You want to avoid the lightning strikes that occur every time you make five consecutive matches that turn tiles by making a short match on tiles that are already blue. The extra compasses will make that much easier in the early parts of the stage.
It may take a couple tries, but it's not too hard to do. Good luck, and if you have any comments or corrections, please post in the comments. :)
Both powerups are a must. Time is a little tight otherwise and the compasses are incredibly useful.

Level 3.3 is the first stage you can unlock this on and the best stage to do it. To unlock this achievement, you need to turn all wood (tan) tiles blue before turning any of the metal (dark grey) tiles tan. It may sound difficult but it's actually much easier than Exact-O-Matcher since you have more room for matches on the board.
For the passive item I recommend the Stone Face to make it easier to find matches, as long as you're comfortable with the reduced amount of time. Your active item should be the last item which can turn other tiles into compasses. You definitely don't want hammer or camera, which I'll explain below.
When you load up the recommended level, you'll notice the metal tiles in the middle surrounded by wood tiles. You'll need to ensure you don't touch any of these metal tiles until you flip all the wood tiles. This means not only not making matches on them, but making sure your active item doesn't flip them AND making sure your lightning coils don't release, since they could flip a metal tile. Because of this, your first order of business needs to be clearing out a space of wood tiles together so you have enough blue tiles available to make matches that will intentionally reset your lightning coils, preventing them from going off. Be conscious of your coils the whole time and make sure you always make a match on all blue tiles to reset them before they go off.
Once you're able to do the above, it isn't too difficult to manipulate the tiles to turn all the wood tiles without touching any metal tiles. Once you flip all the wood tiles, the achievement will unlock.
