A match of Behr S470-2 Gentle Sea reads as a light, cool blue-green with a muted, slightly gray cast. It sits on the softer side of the spectrum, with enough blue to feel clean and enough green to keep the color from looking sharp or saturated.

MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to the selected brand color reference can be used on small, spray-friendly parts such as vents, switch covers, speaker grilles, brackets, railings, shutters, mailbox parts, and PVC trim pieces. It also works well on hardware, frames, shelving supports, and other removable components where a repeatable color match matters more than brushing access into tight corners.

Because this is a light color, dark or uneven substrates may show through more easily and can take additional coats for even coverage. Primer, surface preparation, and film build can all affect how cool or gray the finished color appears, and sheen will influence how strongly the blue-green undertone reads on the final part.

Frequently Asked Questions About Match of Behr™ S470-2 Gentle Sea *

How much MyPerfectColor paint matched to Behr S470-2 Gentle Sea should I buy for my project?

Coverage depends on the size of the surface, how smooth or textured it is, how well the existing surface hides, the application method, and how many coats you need. A typical can of spray paint covers about 20 square feet with one coat. Other MyPerfectColor paint formats typically cover about 400 to 600 square feet, but rough, porous, or dark surfaces can require more. Measure the actual area, plan for the number of coats, and allow extra for texture and test application.

How do I confirm Behr S470-2 Gentle Sea is the right color reference before ordering a MyPerfectColor match?

Confirm S470-2 Gentle Sea from a physical swatch from the original Behr color or from a known existing painted reference. Do not rely on a computer screen alone, because screens can shift color appearance. MyPerfectColor matches to the original brand color standard, so the safest order is based on a verified physical reference.

Where do I find the SDS for MyPerfectColor paint matched to Behr S470-2 Gentle Sea?

Safety Data Sheets are tied to the MyPerfectColor product and chemistry, not to the color name alone.

If you are comparing spray paint and another format, check the SDS for that specific product.

Why can Behr S470-2 Gentle Sea look different after it is applied, even when the match is correct?
