A match of ICI Forest Green is a very dark, muted green with a cool, blue-leaning cast. With an LRV of 6.7, it reads low and dense rather than bright, and the moderate chroma keeps it from going fully neutral.

MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to this color is suited to small parts and fixtures where a deep green finish needs to be repeated on separate pieces. It can be used on vents, switch covers, speaker grilles, railings, shutters, mailbox parts, brackets, frames, shelving, knobs, and other hardware or accessories that are practical to spray after proper prep.

Because this is a dark color, surface texture, sanding marks, and sheen changes can show more clearly than they do in lighter shades. Even coverage and good film build matter, especially on edges, molded plastic, or repaired metal, where thin spots can read lighter.

Frequently Asked Questions About Match of ICI™ Forest Green *

How much MyPerfectColor paint matched to Forest Green 344437 should I order for my project?

Coverage depends on the surface size, texture, hiding power, application method, and how many coats you expect to apply. A typical can of spray paint covers about 20 square feet with one coat. Other paints typically cover between 400 and 600 square feet.

For Forest Green 344437, measure the actual area you plan to coat and then allow for the item type, such as a vent cover, pipe, bracket, grille, or mailbox, since small parts and rough surfaces can use more paint than a smooth flat piece.

What surface prep should I do before spraying Forest Green 344437 on metal, wood, or plastic?

Start by cleaning and degreasing the surface, then use light scuffing where appropriate so the coating can grip better. Mask off any areas you do not want painted, and test Forest Green 344437 on the actual item before committing to the full project.

This is especially important on previously coated parts, smooth fixtures, or items like vents, hardware, pipes, and accessories where adhesion and finish consistency matter.

How do I choose a finish when ordering Forest Green 344437 as MyPerfectColor custom spray paint?

Choose the finish based on the item, the expected wear, and the look you need on the finished surface. Sheen affects durability, reflectivity, cleanup, and the way Forest Green 344437 reads after it is applied.

If you are matching an existing painted part, the finish matters as much as the color because gloss level can change how the matched coating appears on the final item.

Where can I find the SDS for MyPerfectColor Forest Green 344437?

The SDS is tied to the specific MyPerfectColor product and chemistry, not to the Forest Green 344437 color name alone. If you are buying a match of Forest Green 344437, use the SDS for the exact product format you order.

Can MyPerfectColor Forest Green 344437 be used on plastic parts, and what should I know before ordering?

For better adhesion on plastic, use the MyPerfectColor primer for Acrylic Enamel: https://www.myperfectcolor.com/en/product/995031-Primer-for-Acrylic-Enamel/. This is a practical step for items like trim pieces, covers, grilles, and other molded parts where the substrate can be hard to coat.

How do I find the same color as the ICI Forest Green in a different company?

While MyPerfectColor can provide paint matched to the ICI Forest Green, we don't provide any crossover information because this is a subjective determination. Every paint company offers its own unique selection of colors and rarely does a color have an exact equivalent in another company's color collection, so determining which color is the best approximation is a judgement call.

However, under the color image on a color page there is a link that says "Explore Related Colors". Clicking this link displays colors with similar values and you can look for any colors from the company you want.

Keep in mind that this just shows similar colors based on the color values we have stored in our database. It doesn't mean it is the same or give any approximation about how close the color is. You can play around with the Hue, Lightness and Chroma sliders to expand the selection.
