A match of US Government Fed Std 595C 33448 is a warm, muted tan-beige with a soft yellow-brown undertone. It sits in a mid-light range rather than reading as a pale cream, and the color has enough brown in it to stay subdued instead of looking bright or sandy.

MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to this Fed Std 595C reference is suited to maintenance and fabrication work on equipment panels, brackets, enclosures, housings, switch covers, vents, nameplates, support hardware, and small fabricated parts. It can also be used for color-coding tools, training aids, mock-ups, or restored components when the goal is to stay aligned with the specified government color standard rather than the look of a weathered existing coating.

Because this is a muted mid-tone, it generally covers more cleanly than very light colors, but the substrate still matters. Darker or uneven surfaces may need additional build for even coverage, and gloss level can change how warm or deep the color appears. When matching an in-service part, remember that the standard reference and an aged coating are not always the same once wear, fading, texture, or sheen changes are involved.

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 33448 *

What does Fed Std 595C 33448 mean when I order MyPerfectColor paint?

A match of US Government Fed Std 595C 33448 is a government color reference target. When you order MyPerfectColor paint, the color is matched to that reference, but the code does not by itself define the coating chemistry, gloss, surface prep, or formal approval status.

If your project needs a specific product type or coating system, choose that separately from the color code.

Will Fed Std 595C 33448 match an older painted part exactly?

Not always. A correct match to Fed Std 595C 33448 can still look different next to an older in-service coating because of fade, weathering, sheen change, texture, and prior paint variation.

For touch-up beside an aged finish, the best result is sometimes a full-part repaint or a match to the existing part rather than the standard reference alone.

How should I reorder Fed Std 595C 33448 for a repeat project?

Reorder by the exact color code, the same product type, and the same finish whenever possible. That gives you the best chance of consistency across repeat orders or multiple parts.

Even with the same Fed Std 595C 33448 reference, substrate, surface prep, and application method can change the final appearance.

What product formats are available for Fed Std 595C 33448?

MyPerfectColor can supply a match of Fed Std 595C 33448 in spray paint and other available formats for specification-driven color work, depending on the product options offered for the project.

If you need touch-up work, a small repair, or a sprayed finish, choose the format that fits the part and the application method. The color code is the reference target, not the product line.

Is Fed Std 595C 33448 enough to choose the right paint for indoor or outdoor use?

No. Fed Std 595C 33448 tells you the color target, but it does not choose the right coating for interior exposure, exterior weathering, abrasion, chemical exposure, or substrate needs.

Select the product type based on the service environment, then order the paint matched to Fed Std 595C 33448.

MyPerfectColor doesn't sell US Government paint, but it does match the US Government Fed Std 595C 33448 and all the other US Government colors in a wide variety of paint types.
