A match of US Government Fed Std 595C 35630 reads as a light, low-chroma warm gray with a slight yellow-green cast. It is muted rather than crisp, with enough softness to sit near an off-white tone instead of a clear gray. The color has a calm, practical appearance that is more subdued than bright and does not lean strongly cool.
MyPerfectColor custom-matched paint is a match of Fed Std 595C 35630 for specification-driven work based on the selected government color reference. The code identifies the color target, but not the coating system, gloss level, or approval status, so the final result still depends on the product format, surface preparation, and application method chosen for the job.
This color can be used on panels, equipment housings, enclosures, brackets, switch covers, vents, shelving components, carts, and fabricated parts when a consistent standard reference is needed across different materials. In spray form, it also works well for touch-up on rails, hardware, trim pieces, cabinet faces, and other smaller parts where a light neutral needs to blend with an existing specification match.
Because the color is very light and subdued, substrate color, film build, and finish can change how it reads after application. Darker or uneven substrates may need stronger coverage to prevent show-through, and sheen or texture differences can be easier to notice than the hue itself. On adjacent repairs, an aged coating may not look the same as a fresh match even when the standard code is correct, so acceptance-critical work may call for comparison against the actual part or project requirement.

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 35630 *
What does Fed Std 595C 35630 mean, and what does it not define for MyPerfectColor?
A match of US Government Fed Std 595C 35630 is a color reference target. It tells you which government-standard color to match, but it does not by itself define the paint chemistry, gloss, surface preparation, coating system, or any formal approval status.
When you order MyPerfectColor paint for 35630, you are ordering a custom match to that color reference, not an official government-issued coating system.
Will Fed Std 595C 35630 match an older painted part, or only the standard reference color?
A match of US Government Fed Std 595C 35630 is matched to the standard reference, not to weathered or faded paint. If the existing surface has changed from age, sun exposure, chemical exposure, texture, or sheen differences, a standard match can look different next to the old coating.
For touch-up next to an in-service finish, it may be better to match the existing part or use a sample panel if the repair is acceptance-critical.
How should I prepare metal or an existing coating before ordering MyPerfectColor Fed Std 595C 35630?
Start with a clean, sound surface. Remove dirt, grease, and loose corrosion, then scuff existing coatings that are still firmly attached so the new paint can bond properly.
If the part is bare metal, rusty, or exposed to corrosion, choose a primer and surface prep that fit the substrate and the project requirements. For mixed materials or critical work, test the paint on the actual surface before coating the full part.
Do the SDS and product data for Fed Std 595C 35630 come with the color code or with the MyPerfectColor product?
The SDS and product data belong to the specific MyPerfectColor paint product and chemistry you choose. The Fed Std 595C 35630 code is the color reference, not the safety document or coating specification.
If your project needs documentation, review the SDS and product details for the exact item you plan to order, and confirm that the coating system still meets your project requirements separately from the color match.
