A match of Behr 4C17-3 Wild Cherry is a very dark, muted red with a subdued plum-brown cast. The low LRV points to a deep appearance rather than a bright cherry red, and the low chroma keeps the color restrained instead of vivid.

MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to the selected Behr color reference can be used on small parts where a darker red-brown accent is needed, such as vents, switch plates, speaker grilles, brackets, railings, mailboxes, shelf supports, frames, hardware, and other removable fixtures. It is also a practical choice for PVC, metal trim pieces, furniture accents, and maintenance items that need a coordinated finish.

Because this is a dark color, the final result can make surface condition, edge prep, and sheen differences more noticeable, especially on rough, patched, or glossy substrates. Finish, film build, and the material being coated can change how deep or warm the color reads, so preparation and application method matter on close-match work.

Frequently Asked Questions About Match of Behr™ 4C17-3 Wild Cherry *

Can I order 4C17-3 Wild Cherry as MyPerfectColor custom spray paint for trim, hardware, or fixtures?

Yes. MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to Behr 4C17-3 Wild Cherry is a practical option for small or awkward items like trim details, vents, pipes, railings, hardware, accessories, and other parts that are easier to coat with spray than with a brush.

This is a MyPerfectColor match of the selected brand color, not the original Behr paint product.

How long does 4C17-3 Wild Cherry spray paint need before recoating or handling?

For MyPerfectColor spray paint matched to 4C17-3 Wild Cherry, dry-to-touch can happen within minutes, recoating is typically done in 1 to 2 hours, and full cure is about 2 weeks.

Those are different stages. If the part will be stacked, assembled, or handled often, wait for the coating to fully cure before putting it into service.

Will 4C17-3 Wild Cherry look the same in matte and gloss spray paint?

No. The same 4C17-3 Wild Cherry color target can read differently in matte versus gloss because the finish changes how light reflects off the surface and how deep the color appears.

If you are matching an existing painted part, try to match both the color and the finish as closely as possible. MyPerfectColor can supply a custom-matched paint to the selected color reference, but the finish you choose will still affect the final look.

Can 4C17-3 Wild Cherry spray paint be used on plastic parts, and what prep should I plan?

Yes, but plastics vary a lot, so a test on the actual part is important before you commit to the full project. MyPerfectColor spray paint matched to 4C17-3 Wild Cherry adheres well to most plastics, but some low-energy or unusual plastics may need different prep or primer.

For better adhesion, use the MyPerfectColor primer for acrylic enamel before topcoating. Cleaning the part and testing first will reduce the chance of adhesion problems.

How much area will 4C17-3 Wild Cherry spray paint cover?

A typical can of MyPerfectColor spray paint matched to 4C17-3 Wild Cherry covers about 20 square feet with one coat.

Actual coverage depends on the size of the part, surface texture, hiding power, spray method, and how many coats you need. Rough, porous, dark, or uneven surfaces usually need more paint, so plan extra if the item will need a second coat or if you are coating multiple parts.
