A match of Behr SC-152 Red Cedar reads as a muted, medium-deep brown-red with a warm, earthy cast. The color sits more in the cedar and chestnut range than in a bright red family, so it tends to look grounded rather than saturated, with enough red in the undertone to stay clearly warm.

MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to the selected brand color is well suited to sprayable parts that need a wood-toned red-brown finish, such as shutters, railings, mailbox hardware, vent covers, speaker grilles, fence brackets, window trim pieces, cabinet pulls, and decorative shelves or frames. It can also be used on PVC, metal, wicker, and previously coated accessories when the surface is properly prepared.

Because this is a relatively deep color, coverage can change with substrate color, texture, and finish. Darker or uneven surfaces may show through until enough film builds, and gloss or semi-gloss applications can make sanding marks, repairs, or texture differences more noticeable. Careful prep and even spray passes help the color read more uniformly.

Frequently Asked Questions About Match of Behr™ SC-152 Red Cedar *

Can I order SC-152 Red Cedar as custom spray paint for trim, vents, hardware, or other small parts?

Yes. MyPerfectColor can make a match of SC-152 Red Cedar in custom spray paint for parts that are easier to spray than brush, such as trim details, vents, switch covers, railings, pipes, mailboxes, hardware, brackets, fixtures, and other small accessories. This format is often useful when you want a repeatable color on an item that is awkward, removable, or difficult to coat evenly by hand.

If the part has a tricky surface or will be handled often, prep and primer choice can matter as much as the color match.

Will SC-152 Red Cedar spray paint adhere to plastic parts, or do I need special prep?

Plastics vary a lot, so SC-152 Red Cedar should be tested on the actual plastic before you commit to the full part. MyPerfectColor spray paint sticks well to most plastics, but MyPerfectColor primer is recommended to improve adhesion when the surface is difficult or unknown.

For the best decision, clean the part first, test a small area if possible, and use the primer on the same material you plan to paint. That reduces the risk of adhesion problems after the full application.

Where can I find the SDS for SC-152 Red Cedar from MyPerfectColor?

The SDS is tied to the MyPerfectColor product and its chemistry, not to the SC-152 Red Cedar color name by itself. If you are ordering SC-152 Red Cedar in a specific MyPerfectColor format, use the Safety Data Sheet for that exact product.

MyPerfectColor Safety Data Sheets are available on the MyPerfectColor Safety Data Sheets page for the product you are buying. If you change format, check the SDS for that format as well.

Which sheen should I choose for SC-152 Red Cedar if I want the finish to perform well on my project?

The right sheen for SC-152 Red Cedar depends on the part you are painting and how much wear it will see. Lower sheens usually hide surface texture better, while higher sheens are typically more reflective and easier to clean. Higher gloss can also make the matched color read differently on the finished item.

If the item is a trim piece, fixture, or handled part, choose the sheen based on durability, cleanup, and the look you want the coated surface to have in use. The color code alone does not define the sheen.

What prep should I do before spraying SC-152 Red Cedar over metal or an existing coating?

Before spraying SC-152 Red Cedar over metal or a painted surface, clean off dust, grease, and contamination, then scuff glossy areas so the new coating can grip. Remove loose rust, failing paint, or other unstable material before you apply the match.

The condition of the old coating can affect both adhesion and appearance, so a test spray on a hidden area is a good idea. If the surface is difficult or the existing finish is slick, primer may be needed to help the SC-152 Red Cedar coating perform properly.

How do I convert Behr SC-152 Red Cedar to a different color from another paint company?

While we can provide Behr SC-152 Red Cedar 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.
