A match of Behr PFC-03 Red Baron is a deep, warm red with a brown-leaning undertone. The low LRV indicates a dark color, so it reads as subdued and grounded rather than bright or clean. Its stronger chroma keeps the red visible, while the depth pulls it toward a darker, earthy red.

MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to the selected Behr color can be useful on vents, switch covers, speaker grilles, metal brackets, handrails, mailbox parts, sign frames, and other small components where a repeatable red-brown finish is needed. It can also work on plastic housings, hardware, trim pieces, baskets, and display parts after proper surface preparation.

Because this is a dark, saturated red, surface prep and coating uniformity matter. Higher-chroma colors can hide less efficiently than quieter neutrals, and darker substrates, scratches, or sheen differences may still show through if coverage is thin. The final read can shift with finish, film build, and substrate texture, so even application is important.

Frequently Asked Questions About Match of Behr™ PFC-03 Red Baron *

Where can I find the SDS for Behr PFC-03 Red Baron?

The SDS is tied to the MyPerfectColor product you order, not to the Behr color name alone. For MyPerfectColor Safety Data Sheets, use https://www.myperfectcolor.com/Safety-Data-Sheets/33970.htm and review the SDS for the exact product format you are buying.

What should I confirm before ordering Behr PFC-03 Red Baron as a MyPerfectColor match?

Before ordering a match of Behr PFC-03 Red Baron, confirm the exact color reference, the MyPerfectColor product type, the sheen, and the quantity. Custom-made color matches are not returnable or refundable, so those details should be checked before you place the order.

How long should I wait between coats when using MyPerfectColor spray paint matched to PFC-03 Red Baron?

For MyPerfectColor spray paint matched to Behr PFC-03 Red Baron, dry-to-touch happens within minutes, recoating is typically done in one to two hours, and full cure takes about two weeks. These are different stages, so do not treat dry-to-touch as fully cured or ready for heavy handling.

Can PFC-03 Red Baron be used on plastic parts with MyPerfectColor spray paint?

Plastics vary a lot, so test on the actual part before painting the full item.

That matters for items like vents, covers, trim parts, and other plastic pieces where surface prep affects the result.

How much coverage should I plan for when ordering PFC-03 Red Baron in spray paint?

Coverage depends on the size of the item, surface texture, hiding power, application method, and how many coats you need. A typical can of spray paint covers about 20 square feet with one coat. If you are coating a larger part, a rough surface, or a darker substrate, plan for extra material.
