Match of James Hardie™ Pea Shoot *

Yes, if you need a touch-up product for James Hardie Pea Shoot 538405, choose a MyPerfectColor option that explicitly says Original Material Match. For this collection, that is the touch-up path because it includes a sheen match.

If the repair is on a factory-finished siding board, trim piece, or other installed part, do not assume every color-matched product is equally suitable. For direct touch up after shipping damage, installation damage, service work, or a cut edge, Original Material Match is the correct product type to look for.

Not always. James Hardie Pea Shoot 538405 is a factory color reference, but an older installed surface may have weathering, chalking, sheen change, texture changes, or batch variation that makes it read differently beside a fresh match.

If you are touching up next to aged siding or trim, the color reference can still be the right starting point, but you should expect the surrounding surface to influence the final appearance. When the fit is tight, matching an existing part or approved sample is often safer than relying on the color name alone.

For direct touch up on James Hardie Pea Shoot 538405, order the product option that explicitly says Original Material Match. That is the only option in this collection that is suitable for touch up because it includes a sheen match.

Other MyPerfectColor formats, such as water-based housepaint, urethane, or epoxy, can still be color-matched to James Hardie Pea Shoot 538405, but they are better suited to separate parts, broader repainting, or coordinated components. They should not be treated as direct touch-up products for factory-finished siding.

James Hardie Pea Shoot 538405 is a siding color reference, so use it to match replacement boards, trim pieces, or nearby exterior accessories that need to blend with the existing factory-finished material.

This is useful when a new part, cut edge, or accessory needs to coordinate with surrounding James Hardie siding or trim. For direct touch up on the original surface, choose an Original Material Match product. For a separate replacement part, a color-matched product can be used to coordinate the new piece with the existing finish.

When reordering James Hardie Pea Shoot 538405, keep the order tied to the exact color reference, the same product type, and the same finish goal. That gives you the best chance of staying consistent across touch-up jobs or multiple components.

Even with the same color, final appearance can still shift with substrate, prep, application method, and the age of the surrounding siding. If you need repeatability on several parts, order them together when possible and use the same product format for each piece.

It depends. MyPerfectColor matches the color of the James Hardie Pea Shoot but may not match the sheen. If you see Custom Sheen as a sheen option, this means we also match the sheen of the material, otherwise you would need to pick the closest sheen available. However, keep in mind that our version of the James Hardie Pea Shoot is based on matching an official James Hardie color sample. The color and sheen of your specific James Hardie parts may vary. If your material is not new and has been exposed to the weather, then it is likely that the color has changed over time. MyPerfectColor samples not been exposed to sunlight and weather. If you need a touch up application, you may need to send us a part so we can create a touch up solution precisely matching the current color and sheen of your specific materials.

Please note that if your existing materials are not new and you are trying to touch up, they will have aged and are likely different now than they were when new.
