A match of US Government Fed Std 595C 34090 is a dark, subdued green with a cool blue-green cast and low reflectance. It reads as a practical specification color rather than a bright accent, with enough chroma to stay distinctly green while still feeling muted and restrained.
MyPerfectColor custom-matched paint in this Fed Standard color reference is useful when the target is a drawing, maintenance callout, procurement spec, or existing part that already uses this code. It gives you a liquid-paint match for government-standard color work without implying an official government coating system.
For spray applications, this color can be used on brackets, housings, panels, enclosures, cabinets, railings, hardware, machine guards, and other fabricated parts where a dark green standard is needed. It also works for touch-up on support equipment, color-coded accessories, and prototype components that need to read consistently across metal, plastic, or composite surfaces.
Because this is a dark color, surface texture, film build, and sheen differences can be easier to see, especially on repaired areas or beside older coatings. The color can also shift slightly in appearance depending on substrate and finish, so a standard match is not the same as matching weathered or sun-altered paint. For acceptance-sensitive work, compare against the actual part or approved sample when that matters.

About US Government Federal Standard (now Aerospace Material Specification / AMS) 595 Colors. Fed-Std-595C / FED STD 595 Colors
The Federal Standard (now Aerospace Material Specification / AMS) 595 colors are used to specify colors for US Government applications. The color are used by the US Government agencies, branches and suppliers. The most common requests we receive for Fed Standard Colors are for spray paint, Direct to Metal and other paints for prototyping, marking and identification and touchup applications. Typical clients include the USCG, all branches of the Armed Services, the State Department, Lockheed Martin and Boeing. For example, we provided paint to the Navy for marking shells with the specific Fed Std color designated to identify the type of round.
We offer 5 standard sheens in our lacquer touchup paint: flat, low lustre, satin, semi-gloss or gloss. We also offer a full range of Alkyd and Acrylic Direct To Metal paints. Please contact us if you have any questions. Please submit RFQs to [email protected]
The colors in the Federal Standard set have no official names and are identified by five-digits. The numbers designate the sheen, color classification and color intensity.
The first digit will be 1,2 or 3 and indicates the level of sheen:
1 = gloss
2 = semi gloss
3 = matt
The second digit indicates the color group;
0 = Brown 5 = Blue
1 = Red 6 = Grey
2 = Orange 7 = Other (white, black, violet, metallic)
3 = Yellow 8 = Fluorescent
4 = Green
The third to fifth digits indicate the intensity. Lower numbers indicates a darker color and higher numbers indicate a lighter color.
While the Fed Std colors indicate sheen as part of the 5 digits, MyPerfectColor still requires you to enter a specific sheen. For example, the color Fed Std 37038 technically refers to a matte finish, but MyPerfectColor offers it in any sheen.
Frequently Asked Questions About Match of US Government™ Fed Std 595C 34090 *
What does Fed Std 595C 34090 tell me, and what does it not tell me?
A match of US Government Fed Std 595C 34090 is a government color reference target. It tells you which color to order, but it does not by itself define the coating chemistry, gloss level, surface preparation, corrosion system, or any formal approval status.
For project work, choose MyPerfectColor paint matched to Fed Std 595C 34090, then confirm the product format and finish your job requires.
Will MyPerfectColor paint matched to Fed Std 595C 34090 match an older in-service coating?
It may not match an aged coating exactly. Weathering, fading, sheen changes, texture, and prior repaint history can make an older surface look different even when the color code is correct.
If you are repairing next to an existing part, the safest path is often to compare against the actual part or test a sample before committing to the full repair. For some jobs, a full-part repaint is a better match than spot touch-up.
For Fed Std 595C 34090, which documents apply to the color code and which apply to the paint product?
The Fed Std 595C 34090 code is the color reference. Product documents such as the SDS and product data belong to the specific MyPerfectColor paint chemistry you select.
If your job needs documentation for handling, application, or compliance review, check the documents for the chosen product separately from the color code itself.
How do I reorder Fed Std 595C 34090 to keep repeat parts consistent?
To improve consistency, reorder by the exact color code, the same product type, and the same finish each time. That helps keep the color reference and the coating format aligned across parts.
Keep in mind that substrate, primer, film build, and application method can still change the final appearance. For multi-part work, use the same prep and application process whenever possible.
What should I confirm before ordering custom-matched paint for Fed Std 595C 34090?
Before ordering, confirm the exact government color code, the product type, the finish, and the quantity you need. If you are trying to match an existing part, make sure you are ordering for the standard reference or for the in-service surface, since those are not always the same.
Custom color matches should be reviewed carefully before purchase because they are made to order and are generally not returnable or refundable.
