MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to Benjamin Moore HC-118 Sherwood Green is a muted, light olive green with a soft gray cast and a yellow-green lean. Its LRV of 42.82 places it in the mid-light range, so it reads lighter than a deep green but still has enough body to avoid looking pastel.

That restrained character works well on spray-painted parts where a subdued green is needed on small surfaces or removable pieces. It can be used on vents, switch covers, speaker grilles, brackets, railings, shutters, mailboxes, PVC trim, hardware, shelving, frames, baskets, and furniture accents when those items need to match a known color reference without drawing extra attention.

Because the color is not highly saturated, it usually covers more calmly than vivid greens, but substrate and film build still matter. Darker bases, rough textures, or uneven prep can alter how quickly the color reaches a uniform read, and gloss level can make the gray-green undertone appear a bit cleaner or deeper. A consistent primer or base color can help the finish develop evenly.

For Benjamin Moore colors, MyPerfectColor supplies its own custom-matched paint to the selected color reference rather than the original brand product. This listing is suited to spray-applied project parts and other specialty-format uses where matching the reference color is the main goal.

Frequently Asked Questions About Match of Benjamin Moore™ HC-118 Sherwood Green *

How should I spray MyPerfectColor HC-118 Sherwood Green for a smoother finish?

Use light, even coats of MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to HC-118 Sherwood Green rather than trying to cover in one heavy pass. Hold the can at a consistent distance, overlap each pass slightly, and keep the spray moving so the film builds evenly.

Heavy coats can cause runs, uneven sheen, and a darker or muddier final look. For best results, apply several thin coats and let each coat flash off as directed before the next pass.

Can MyPerfectColor HC-118 Sherwood Green be sprayed on plastic parts?

Yes, MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to HC-118 Sherwood Green can be used on many plastic parts, but plastics vary a lot. Because some plastics are low-energy or difficult to bond to, test the finish on the actual item before you commit to the full project.

Using the MyPerfectColor primer for Acrylic Enamel can improve adhesion on challenging plastic surfaces. Good cleaning and surface prep are important, especially on parts that have mold release, oils, or a slick finish.

Is MyPerfectColor HC-118 Sherwood Green a good option for switch covers, vents, or hardware?

Yes, HC-118 Sherwood Green is a practical choice for small parts where a durable spray finish is easier than brush application. MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to this color is commonly used on switch covers, vents, speaker grilles, brackets, trim pieces, knobs, and similar items.

For small parts, the main goal is even coverage and a consistent finish across the visible face. Proper prep and light coats help the color read more uniformly on details and edges.

How much MyPerfectColor HC-118 Sherwood Green spray paint do I need?

Coverage depends on the size of the item, the texture of the surface, how well the color hides, and how many coats you plan to apply. A typical can of MyPerfectColor custom spray paint covers about 20 square feet with one coat.

For HC-118 Sherwood Green, plan for extra material if you are coating a textured surface, spraying over a dark base, or need multiple coats for even color. If the project is small, one can may be enough for several parts, but larger or more absorbent surfaces may need more.

How do I confirm HC-118 Sherwood Green is the right color before ordering from MyPerfectColor?

Confirm HC-118 Sherwood Green from a physical swatch or a known existing reference from the original Benjamin Moore color, not from a screen image alone. MyPerfectColor makes a custom match to the selected brand color reference, so the target color should be verified before you place the order.

This matters most when the new item will sit beside an existing painted surface or when color approval is important. The code identifies the reference color, but it does not define sheen, substrate, or how an aged surface may look today.

How do I convert Benjamin Moore HC-118 Sherwood Green to a different color from another paint company?

However, under the color image on a color page there is a link that says "Explore Colors". Clicking this link displays colors with similar values and you can look for any colors from the brand you want.

Keep in mind that this just shows similar colors based on the color values we have stored in our database. It doesn't mean it is the same or give any approximation about how close the color is. You can play around with the Hue, Lightness and Chroma sliders to expand the selection.
