Match of Behr™ S290-5 Amber Autumn *

Coverage depends on the size of the item, the surface texture, the application method, how well the color hides, and how many coats are needed. For spray paint, a typical can covers about 20 square feet with one coat. For brushable paints, coverage is often about 400 to 600 square feet per gallon, but the actual result can be lower on rough or porous surfaces.

If you are coating a larger part in S290-5 Amber Autumn, measure the total surface area, then allow extra for test sprays and added coats. A sample on the actual item is the safest way to confirm how much MyPerfectColor custom-matched paint you need.

Start by cleaning the surface so it is free of dirt, oil, wax, and other contamination. If the existing finish is glossy or slick, light scuffing can help the new coating hold better. Mask off areas you do not want painted, then test the S290-5 Amber Autumn match on the actual surface before committing to the full project.

Good prep matters because the same color can look different if the substrate is dirty, uneven, or poorly sealed. This is especially important on parts that will be handled often or exposed to wear.

The Safety Data Sheet is tied to the MyPerfectColor product and chemistry, not to the Behr S290-5 Amber Autumn color name by itself. That means you should check the SDS for the exact MyPerfectColor paint format you plan to order, such as spray paint or another product type.

MyPerfectColor Safety Data Sheets are available on the MyPerfectColor Safety Data Sheets page. Use that document when you need handling, storage, or safety information for the specific product you ordered.

Plastic can be painted, but plastics vary a lot, so testing on the actual material is important. MyPerfectColor spray paint sticks well to most plastics, but adhesion can still depend on the exact substrate, surface texture, and how the part was prepared.

If you want better adhesion on plastic, use the MyPerfectColor primer made for this purpose before applying the S290-5 Amber Autumn match. A test piece is the safest way to confirm bond, appearance, and dry handling on your specific part.

Choose the finish based on how durable you need the coating to be, how much reflectivity you want, how easy it should be to clean, and how closely you need the coated item to read against the target color. The finish affects how S290-5 Amber Autumn looks on the finished item, so the same color can appear different in matte, satin, or glossier options.

The Behr S290-5 Amber Autumn code identifies the color target, but it does not define sheen. If you are matching an existing part, confirm the finish choice before ordering so the MyPerfectColor match is appropriate for the project.

MyPerfectColor uses an acrylic enamel which is a fast-drying durable coating suitable for interior or exterior use.

It sticks well to most surfaces including metal, plastics, powder-coatings, cabinets and primed or previously painted wood.

The MyPerfectColor 11oz spray will cover about 20 square feet per coat. Keep in mind that it is difficult to gauge spray paint need as the coverage is highly dependent on how it is applied. Learn more about how spray paint works at MyPerfectColor.

MyPerfectColor has an original sample of the Behr S290-5 Amber Autumn in its color archive. This enables us to make paint and verify that it matches the original.

Please note that if your material is not new then the paint may not work for touch up as your material has aged and is likely different than it was when new. Learn more about our color matching accuracy. If you need a touch up application, send us a part and we can create a touch up solution precisely matching the current color and sheen of your specific materials.

While we can provide Behr S290-5 Amber Autumn 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.
