A match of US Government Fed Std 595C 33434 reads as a warm, medium-depth orange-brown with an earthy cast. It is not a bright signal color; the hue leans toward yellow-orange, with enough brown to keep it muted and practical on fabricated parts.

MyPerfectColor custom-matched paint, matched to Fed Std 595C 33434, can be used for touch-up on brackets, enclosures, housings, panels, access covers, racks, fixtures, and other fabricated components. It also fits color-coding work on tools, support hardware, training aids, and prototype parts where a specified Fed Std 595C target is required.

Because this is a moderately chromatic mid-tone, finish and film build can affect how uniform it looks after spraying. Thin coverage over dark or uneven substrates may allow contrast to show through, and gloss level can make surface texture and repair edges more noticeable. On a repair next to older coating, the standard match may still read differently if the surrounding finish has aged or faded.

For inspection-critical or acceptance-sensitive work, it is usually worth comparing against the existing part or an approved sample instead of relying on the code alone. A Fed Std 595C reference defines the color target, but it does not control substrate condition, weathering, or the coating system used on the original part.

About US Government Federal Standard (now Aerospace Material Specification / AMS) 595 Colors. Fed-Std-595C / FED STD 595 Colors

The Federal Standard (now Aerospace Material Specification / AMS) 595 colors are used to specify colors for US Government applications. The color are used by the US Government agencies, branches and suppliers. The most common requests we receive for Fed Standard Colors are for spray paint, Direct to Metal and other paints for prototyping, marking and identification and touchup applications. Typical clients include the USCG, all branches of the Armed Services, the State Department, Lockheed Martin and Boeing. For example, we provided paint to the Navy for marking shells with the specific Fed Std color designated to identify the type of round.

We offer 5 standard sheens in our lacquer touchup paint: flat, low lustre, satin, semi-gloss or gloss. We also offer a full range of Alkyd and Acrylic Direct To Metal paints. Please contact us if you have any questions. Please submit RFQs to [email protected]

The colors in the Federal Standard set have no official names and are identified by five-digits. The numbers designate the sheen, color classification and color intensity.

The first digit will be 1,2 or 3 and indicates the level of sheen:
    1 = gloss
    2 = semi gloss
    3 = matt

The second digit indicates the color group;
      0 = Brown     5 = Blue
      1 = Red         6 = Grey
      2 = Orange   7 = Other (white, black, violet, metallic)
      3 = Yellow     8 = Fluorescent
      4 = Green      

The third to fifth digits indicate the intensity. Lower numbers indicates a darker color and higher numbers indicate a lighter color.

While the Fed Std colors indicate sheen as part of the 5 digits, MyPerfectColor still requires you to enter a specific sheen. For example, the color Fed Std 37038 technically refers to a matte finish, but MyPerfectColor offers it in any sheen.

Frequently Asked Questions About Match of US Government™ Fed Std 595C 33434 *

What does Fed Std 595C 33434 mean when I order MyPerfectColor paint?

A match of US Government Fed Std 595C 33434 is a government color reference target. When you order MyPerfectColor paint matched to Fed Std 595C 33434, you are choosing the color standard, not a complete coating system.

You still need to choose the product type, gloss or finish, and any primer or surface prep needed for the job. The code does not by itself define chemistry, corrosion protection, or formal approval status.

Will Fed Std 595C 33434 match an older coated part I am touching up?

Not always. A match of US Government Fed Std 595C 33434 is a match to the standard reference, but an older in-service coating may have faded, changed sheen, picked up texture, or aged differently from the original target.

If you are repairing next to weathered paint, the correct code can still look different on the part. For acceptance-sensitive work, a sample on the actual part or a match to the existing finish is often the safer choice than relying on the standard code alone.

How should I reorder Fed Std 595C 33434 for multiple parts or future repairs?

Reorder the exact same color code, product type, and finish if you want the best repeatability for Fed Std 595C 33434. That helps keep the color target consistent across parts and future touch-up work.

Even with the same code, the final look can still change with substrate, primer, film build, and application method. If appearance consistency is important, keep records of the product format, surface prep, and how the paint was applied.

What surface prep should I use before applying Fed Std 595C 33434 to metal or an existing coating?

For Fed Std 595C 33434, start with a clean, dry surface. Remove oil, grease, dust, loose paint, and any corrosion before coating.

On bare metal, use the primer and prep system that fits the substrate and service conditions. On an existing coating, scuff the surface as needed for adhesion and test a small area first, especially if the current finish is unknown or aged.

Can I order Fed Std 595C 33434 in spray paint, touch-up paint, or other formats?
