A match of Benjamin Moore TC-42 green bean is a muted, gray-cast green with an earthy undertone and medium depth. It reads softer than a clear green and less neutral than a gray-green, with enough color to register as green without feeling bright.

MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to Benjamin Moore TC-42 green bean can be used on vents, switch covers, door hardware, brackets, shelving parts, mailboxes, PVC trim pieces, speaker grilles, and fixture covers when you want a subdued green finish on small sprayable items. It is also a practical choice for metal or plastic accessories that need to coordinate with a known paint color reference rather than stand out.

Because the color is moderately muted, it usually behaves more predictably than a vivid green, but finish and substrate still matter. Gloss can make it appear a little cleaner and deeper, while flatter finishes tend to soften it. On dark, uneven, or porous surfaces, coverage can still vary and additional coats may be needed for an even reading.

Frequently Asked Questions About Match of Benjamin Moore™ TC-42 green bean *

How do I confirm the correct Benjamin Moore TC-42 green bean color reference before ordering a MyPerfectColor match?

Confirm TC-42 green bean from a physical Benjamin Moore swatch or another known, trusted color reference before you order. Screen viewing alone can shift the color enough to create a mismatch risk.

MyPerfectColor makes a custom match to the selected Benjamin Moore color reference, not to an on-screen image. If you are matching trim, a fixture, or a removable part, make sure the reference you are using is the actual color you want reproduced.

Which finish should I choose for Benjamin Moore TC-42 green bean when ordering MyPerfectColor paint?

Choose the finish based on how the item will be used and how much sheen you want on the finished surface. With TC-42 green bean, a glossier finish will reflect more light and can make the matched color read differently than a flatter finish, especially on smooth metal or plastic parts.

For Benjamin Moore colors, MyPerfectColor offers custom-matched spray paint and other specialty formats, not Benjamin Moore interior or exterior house paint options. If the part needs easier cleaning or more wear resistance, choose a higher-sheen option; if you want less reflectivity and less emphasis on surface texture, choose a lower-sheen option.

Can I return a custom-made Benjamin Moore TC-42 green bean MyPerfectColor order if I pick the wrong match or sheen?

Custom-made color orders should be selected carefully because once MyPerfectColor makes a match of Benjamin Moore TC-42 green bean, it is not something to assume can be returned or refunded.

Before ordering, verify the color reference, the MyPerfectColor product format, the sheen, and the quantity you need. If you are unsure about any of those details, confirm them first so you do not end up with a custom order that does not fit the project.

How much Benjamin Moore TC-42 green bean MyPerfectColor paint do I need for my project?

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

If you are painting items like vents, pipe, railings, hardware, or small fixtures in TC-42 green bean, estimate based on the total surface area and plan for extra material if the surface is rough or if you expect more than one coat.

What is the best way to spray Benjamin Moore TC-42 green bean for a smooth finish?

Use light, even coats and keep the spray moving so you do not load too much paint in one area. Hold a consistent distance, overlap each pass slightly, and avoid heavy passes that can cause runs, uneven sheen, or a muddy-looking build in TC-42 green bean.

This approach is especially useful on parts like PVC pipe, grilles, covers, hardware, and fixtures where spray application is practical. Let each coat dry according to the product directions before applying the next coat, and prepare the surface well so the finish lays down evenly.

How do I convert Benjamin Moore TC-42 green bean to a different color from another paint company?

While we can provide Benjamin Moore TC-42 green bean 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.
