Step 1: Select Paint Type / Application


A match of Color Guild 8596N Olympic Pine is a deep, muted blue-green with a clear gray cast. The low chroma keeps it subdued rather than bright, and the dark LRV gives it a grounded, low-light appearance. It tends to read cool overall, with the green side slightly more noticeable than the blue.

MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to this color is well suited to vents, speaker grilles, switch plates, railings, brackets, mailboxes, downspouts, cabinet pulls, and similar small parts. It can also be used on PVC, metal hardware, shelving supports, frames, and equipment covers when a dark blue-green finish is needed on a sprayable surface.

Because this color is dark and low-chroma, surface preparation and finish choice matter. Texture, sanding marks, and sheen differences can be easier to see on the finished part, and the substrate color can influence how even the coverage appears. On patchy or contrasting surfaces, additional coats may be needed for consistent hiding.

Frequently Asked Questions About Match of Color Guild™ 8596N Olympic Pine *

How do I confirm that 8596N Olympic Pine from Color Guild is the right color reference before I order a MyPerfectColor match?

Confirm 8596N Olympic Pine from Color Guild against a physical swatch, color chip, or an existing painted item that you already know matches the original brand color. Screen viewing can shift the color, so it is not a reliable final approval method.

MyPerfectColor makes a custom match to the selected brand color reference, so the more certain you are about the source color, the lower the risk of ordering the wrong match.

Will 8596N Olympic Pine from Color Guild look the same in matte and gloss MyPerfectColor finishes?

No. The same match of 8596N Olympic Pine can read differently in matte, satin, or gloss because the finish changes light reflection and how deep the color appears on the surface.

If you are ordering a MyPerfectColor match to this Color Guild color, choose the sheen based on the item and the look you need after application, not on the color code alone. The color match and the finish are separate decisions.

What should I check before ordering a custom match of 8596N Olympic Pine from Color Guild?

Before ordering a custom match of 8596N Olympic Pine from Color Guild, confirm the exact color reference, the MyPerfectColor product format, the sheen, and the quantity you need. Custom-made color orders should be chosen carefully because they are made to your selected reference.

If the project depends on a specific Color Guild target, verify the reference first so you avoid ordering a match of the wrong color or the wrong finish.

Can I order 8596N Olympic Pine from Color Guild in MyPerfectColor spray paint for baskets, frames, or furniture accents?

What prep is needed before applying a match of 8596N Olympic Pine from Color Guild over metal or an existing coating?

Keep in mind that gloss, texture, and the condition of the old coating can change how the finished color reads, even when the color match itself is correct. A clean, sound surface gives you the best chance of a consistent result.
