A match of Behr 1A56-5 Irish Point is a medium green with a noticeable yellow cast, giving it a warm, earthy character rather than a blue-green look. With an LRV of 37.38, it sits in the mid-depth range, so it has enough body to read clearly on small parts and exterior details without appearing overly dark.
MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to this color is a practical choice for vents, louver covers, shutters, downspouts, railings, mailbox parts, plant stands, shelving brackets, frames, and other removable pieces where a coordinated green finish is needed. It can also be used on PVC, hardware, speaker grilles, switch plates, and utility covers when a consistent color across mixed materials matters.
Because this is a moderately strong color, coverage can depend on the base color and the surface texture underneath. Darker or uneven substrates may take additional coats for even color, and sheen level can shift the way the yellow-green undertone reads. Surface prep, film build, and finish selection all play a noticeable role in how this color appears on metal, plastic, and previously coated parts.

MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to Behr 1A56-5 Irish Point is typically dry to the touch within minutes. Plan to recoat in about 1 to 2 hours, and allow about two weeks for full cure before heavy handling, assembly, or tight stacking.
If your project needs immediate handling or a fast second coat, plan around those milestones rather than assuming the surface is ready as soon as it feels dry.
Choose the finish based on how the item will be used and cleaned, not on the color name alone. Higher gloss finishes are usually easier to wipe clean and reflect more light, while lower gloss finishes reduce reflectivity and can be more forgiving on surface imperfections.
The same Behr 1A56-5 Irish Point match can look different in different sheens, so keep the finish consistent if you need multiple parts to coordinate with each other.
No. Even when the color match is correct, Behr 1A56-5 Irish Point can read differently after application because of lighting, placement, sheen, surface texture, and the colors around it.
If the finished part will sit right beside an existing painted surface or be viewed under strong daylight or indoor lighting, expect some visible difference. For the lowest risk, judge the finished item in the actual location and lighting it will live in.
Start with the size and shape of the part, then add for texture and extra coats. A typical can of spray paint covers about 20 square feet with one coat, but the real total for Behr 1A56-5 Irish Point depends on the substrate, surface texture, hiding power, spray method, and how many coats you need.
Rough or porous parts, dark base colors, and detailed items with edges or recesses can use more paint than a flat area. If the project is larger than a small part or needs more than one coat, order extra instead of relying on the theoretical coverage alone.
