This is a medium-deep warm red-orange with a strong red base, a clear orange undertone, and a saturated look. The low LRV gives it a grounded, noticeable presence rather than a light or airy one.

MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to this color works well on parts and accessories where a vivid warm tone is needed on a smaller surface: shutters, railings, mailbox posts, door hardware, vent covers, speaker grilles, brackets, shelving, frames, PVC trim pieces, and other metal or plastic components. It can also suit maker projects, signage parts, and fixture accents that need a consistent red-orange match.

Because the color is saturated, even coverage matters; darker or uneven substrates may still show variation if prep is inconsistent. Sheen and substrate texture can shift the look toward deeper or cleaner red, so film build and finish selection can affect the final appearance. Outdoor exposure can also be harder on vivid colors than on quieter neutrals, especially on exposed edges and small parts.

Frequently Asked Questions About Match of Behr™ P170-7 100 MPH *

How do I confirm that Behr P170-7 100 MPH is the right color before ordering a MyPerfectColor match?

Confirm P170-7 100 MPH from a physical swatch, a known existing painted sample, or the original Behr color reference before ordering. Screen images can shift with lighting and display settings, so they are not reliable for final approval. MyPerfectColor makes a match of the selected Behr color reference, so verifying the target color first helps avoid ordering the wrong match.

What should I check before ordering MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to Behr P170-7 100 MPH?

Before you order, confirm that you selected the correct Behr P170-7 100 MPH color reference, the right MyPerfectColor product format, the sheen you need, and enough quantity for the full project. Custom-matched orders are made to order, so they should be chosen carefully. MyPerfectColor is supplying its own paint matched to the selected Behr color reference, not the original Behr paint product.

How long does MyPerfectColor spray paint matched to Behr P170-7 100 MPH take to dry, recoat, and fully cure?

For spray paint, dry-to-touch is usually within minutes, recoating is typically done in 1-2 hours, and full cure takes about two weeks. Those are different stages, so a piece may feel dry before it is ready for another coat or for hard handling. If you are coating a part that will be installed soon, plan for the full cure time before heavy use.

When does Behr P170-7 100 MPH need primer before MyPerfectColor paint is applied?

Primer needs depend on the substrate, its condition, and the paint type you are using. A primer never hurts and can improve adhesion, but it is not always required. Check the prep guidance for the specific MyPerfectColor product you plan to order for P170-7 100 MPH so you can decide based on the surface you are coating.

Where can I find the SDS for MyPerfectColor paint matched to Behr P170-7 100 MPH?

The SDS is tied to the specific MyPerfectColor paint product or chemistry you order, not to the color name P170-7 100 MPH by itself. To find the correct document, use the SDS information for the exact product format you plan to buy. You can also check the MyPerfectColor Safety Data Sheets page at https://www.myperfectcolor.com/Safety-Data-Sheets/33970.htm.

How do I convert Behr P170-7 100 MPH to a different color from another paint company?

While we can provide Behr P170-7 100 MPH 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.
