A match of Behr 808 Forest Green is a deep, muted green with an earthy olive undertone. The low LRV keeps it on the dark side, while the restrained chroma gives it a quiet, non-vivid look rather than a bright green.

MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to this color is useful for parts and accessories that need a darker green finish without drawing attention away from the item itself. It can be used on vents, switch covers, mailbox bodies, railings, brackets, shutters, speaker grilles, hardware, and painted PVC or trim pieces after proper preparation.

Because this is a darker color, coverage is often more straightforward than with pale shades, but the final look still depends on substrate color, texture, and film build. In glossier finishes, surface flaws and sheen differences can be more noticeable, so even prep and consistent coats matter when the part will sit beside existing painted surfaces.

Frequently Asked Questions About Match of Behr™ 808 Forest Green *

Can Behr 808 Forest Green be matched in MyPerfectColor spray paint for plastic or other difficult surfaces?

Yes, MyPerfectColor can make a match of Behr 808 Forest Green in spray paint for many plastic parts, but plastics vary a lot and some are harder to bond to than others.

For the lowest risk, test the coating on the actual material first. Using MyPerfectColor primer can improve adhesion on challenging substrates, especially when the part will be handled or exposed to wear.

How do I convert Behr 808 Forest Green to a different color from another paint company?

While we can provide Behr 808 Forest Green in paint, we don't provide any crossover information. We've found that every paint company offers its own unique selection of colors and rarely does a color have an exact equivalent in another brand.

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