A match of US Government Fed Std 595C 14115 is a deep blue-green with a cool cast, low lightness, and moderate chroma. It reads as a dark, slightly muted green rather than a bright teal, so it tends to look solid on small parts and hardware.

MyPerfectColor custom-matched paint to this Fed Standard reference is used when a drawing, procurement spec, or maintenance record calls for 14115 on fabricated parts, replacement components, or touch-up work. It gives you a color target tied to the standard, not an official government coating system.

In spray paint form, this color can be used on equipment panels, brackets, housings, enclosures, switch covers, vents, carts, railings, and other metal or plastic parts that need to follow the same government color standard. It also fits small accessories such as handles, clamps, hardware, and support fixtures where a consistent specified finish is needed.

Because 14115 is dark and moderately saturated, surface texture, sheen, and film build can change how it reads after application. Matching an aged or weathered existing coating may still differ from the standard chip, and darker or uneven substrates can make coverage and gloss variation more noticeable. For acceptance-critical repairs beside an existing finish, a project-specific sample or match to the part may be needed.

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 14115 *

Does Fed Std 595C 14115 define the whole coating system, or only the color?

A match of US Government Fed Std 595C 14115 is a color reference target, not the full coating system. The code tells you what color to match, but it does not by itself define chemistry, gloss, surface preparation, corrosion protection, or formal approval status.

MyPerfectColor can supply paint matched to Fed Std 595C 14115, but you still need to choose the product type and finish that fit your project requirements.

Will Fed Std 595C 14115 match an older painted part that has faded or weathered?

Not always. Fed Std 595C 14115 matches the standard color reference, but an in-service part can look different after weathering, fading, chemical exposure, or changes in sheen and texture.

If you are touching up beside an existing coating, the standard color may be correct and still look different on the repaired area. In higher-visibility or acceptance-critical work, a match to the existing part or a full-part repaint can be the better choice.

Why can Fed Std 595C 14115 look different after application even if the color match is correct?

Finish and application details can change how Fed Std 595C 14115 reads after it is applied. Gloss level, matte or satin finish, surface texture, and film build can all shift the visual result even when the color match itself is correct.

When ordering MyPerfectColor custom-matched paint, confirm the finish you need for the project so the applied result is closer to the expected appearance.

Which product should I choose for Fed Std 595C 14115 if the part will be used indoors, outdoors, or in a harsh environment?

Choose the product based on the service environment and substrate, not just the Fed Std 595C 14115 color reference. The code tells you the color target, but it does not tell you whether the part needs a particular chemistry, abrasion resistance, chemical resistance, or coating system.

MyPerfectColor offers Fed Std 595C 14115 matched paint in formats such as spray paint and touch-up paint, and other product types may be appropriate depending on the job. If the part will see exterior exposure or hard service, make sure the coating you order fits those demands.

What should I confirm before ordering a custom match for Fed Std 595C 14115?

Before ordering, confirm the exact color code and name, the product format, the finish, and the quantity you need. For Fed Std 595C 14115, that helps reduce the risk of ordering a paint that matches the wrong reference or does not fit the job.

Custom-matched colors should be reviewed carefully before purchase because they are made to order and are not returnable or refundable once produced. If your project is acceptance-critical, it can also help to verify the match against the existing part or a sample panel before placing a large order.
