A match of Behr PFC-75 Tar Black is a very dark near-black with a muted, cool-leaning cast. It reads as a deep charcoal rather than a pure, inky black, and the very low chroma keeps it restrained instead of vivid.

MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to this color is well suited to small parts and fixtures that need a dark, coordinated finish, such as HVAC vents, return-air grilles, speaker grilles, switch covers, brackets, railing components, mailbox hardware, gate parts, PVC trim pieces, and furniture frames. It can also be used on sign hardware, appliance panels, and other sprayable accessories where a dark, low-profile appearance is the goal.

Because this color is so dark, surface prep and finish can affect the result noticeably. Gloss level, substrate texture, and film build can change how deep it appears, and lighter or uneven surfaces may need additional coats to achieve a uniform dark film. On glossy parts, surface condition and sheen differences may be easier to notice than they would be in a lighter color.

Frequently Asked Questions About Match of Behr™ PFC-75 Tar Black *

How do I confirm PFC-75 Tar Black by Behr before ordering a MyPerfectColor match?

Confirm PFC-75 Tar Black from a physical Behr color reference or a known existing sample before you order. Screen viewing can shift the color, and the code alone does not tell you the finish, surface texture, or how an old painted part may look.

MyPerfectColor makes a custom match to the selected Behr color reference, so the best way to avoid a wrong order is to verify that PFC-75 Tar Black is the exact target you want.

Which finish should I choose for PFC-75 Tar Black in MyPerfectColor spray paint?

Choose the finish based on how the part will be used and how much reflectivity you want on the finished item. A lower-sheen finish usually reduces glare and can make surface variation less noticeable, while a higher-sheen finish is easier to wipe down but will reflect more light.

For a match of PFC-75 Tar Black, remember that sheen changes the final appearance even when the color formula is correct. If you are coating trim, hardware, vents, or a removable fixture, pick the finish that fits the object's handling and cleaning needs, not just the color name.

Can I use PFC-75 Tar Black on plastic parts, and what prep should I do first?

Yes, MyPerfectColor spray paint can be used on many plastics, but plastics vary widely and the actual part should be tested first. For items like PVC pipe, vents, covers, or plastic fixtures, surface prep matters because smooth or low-energy plastics can affect adhesion.

Using the MyPerfectColor primer can improve adhesion on difficult plastic surfaces. If the part is important or hard to replace, test a small area on the actual material before coating the full piece.

Where can I find the SDS for PFC-75 Tar Black by Behr in MyPerfectColor?

The SDS is tied to the MyPerfectColor product and chemistry, not to the Behr color name alone. If you need safety information for a match of PFC-75 Tar Black, use the SDS for the specific MyPerfectColor paint product you plan to order.

Do not assume the SDS for one product format applies to every format. Check the Safety Data Sheet for the exact MyPerfectColor product you are buying before use.

How long does PFC-75 Tar Black spray paint take to dry, recoat, and handle?

MyPerfectColor spray paint is typically dry to the touch within minutes, can usually be recoated in 1 to 2 hours, and reaches full cure in about two weeks. Dry to the touch does not mean the coating is ready for heavy handling, stacking, or assembly.

For a match of PFC-75 Tar Black on parts like hardware, brackets, grilles, or small fixtures, plan your workflow around those separate stages so you do not damage the finish before it has cured.
