A match of Behr PPU2-17 Morocco Red is a deep red with a warm, earthy character. It leans toward brown and orange rather than a clean blue red, and its low lightness gives it a darker, grounded appearance.

MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to this color can be used on shutters, railings, mailbox parts, vent covers, speaker grilles, switch plates, brackets, trim hardware, and other small components that need a coordinated red-brown finish. It can also be practical for PVC, metal accessories, shelving parts, and furniture accents where spray application gives a smoother result than brushing.

Because this is a fairly dark and saturated color, surface prep and even film build matter. On light or patchy substrates, it may take additional coats to look uniform, and gloss level or texture can change how deep or brown the color reads. Dark reds can also make sanding marks, old finish defects, and sheen differences more noticeable, especially on bare metal or previously coated parts.

Frequently Asked Questions About Match of Behr™ PPU2-17 Morocco Red *

Where can I find the SDS for PPU2-17 Morocco Red by Behr?

The SDS is tied to the MyPerfectColor product you order, not to the Behr color name by itself. For PPU2-17 Morocco Red, use the MyPerfectColor Safety Data Sheets page here: Safety Data Sheets.

If you need the SDS for a specific MyPerfectColor format, make sure you are looking at the SDS for that exact product and chemistry, since spray paint and other formats can have different documentation.

How much does PPU2-17 Morocco Red by Behr cover in MyPerfectColor spray paint or other formats?

Coverage depends on the surface size, texture, hide, application method, and how many coats you need. A typical can of spray paint covers about 20 square feet with one coat. Other paints typically cover between 400 and 600 square feet, but the real result can be lower on rough, porous, or dark surfaces.

If you are coating a large item or a surface that needs extra hiding, plan for more than one coat so you do not run short on a color match of PPU2-17 Morocco Red.

How does finish affect how PPU2-17 Morocco Red looks in MyPerfectColor paint?

Finish changes reflectivity, so the same match of PPU2-17 Morocco Red can look different in matte, satin, semi-gloss, or gloss. The color code tells you the target color, but it does not define sheen, so the finished look depends on the product finish you choose and the surface it is applied to.

If you are matching an existing coated item, use the finish that best fits the item you are painting, since a higher or lower sheen can make the color read lighter, darker, or more vivid after application.

What spray application tips help when using PPU2-17 Morocco Red by Behr in MyPerfectColor spray paint?

Use light, even coats instead of one heavy pass. Keep your spray movement consistent, overlap each pass evenly, and let each coat dry as directed before adding the next one. This helps reduce runs, patchy coverage, and uneven sheen.

With a color match of PPU2-17 Morocco Red, heavy application can change how the color builds on the surface, so controlled coats are usually the safer way to get a more even result on parts, fixtures, and other small objects.

How do I choose a finish when ordering PPU2-17 Morocco Red by Behr as a MyPerfectColor match?

Choose the finish based on how the item will be used and how much reflectivity you want on the finished surface. The same PPU2-17 Morocco Red match can look different in different sheens, so finish selection is part of ordering the right product, not just a cosmetic detail.

If you want a more durable or easier-to-clean finish, you may prefer a higher sheen. If you want less reflection, a lower sheen may be a better fit. The best choice depends on the object you are painting and the look you need from the coated part.
