Step 1: Select Paint Type / Application


A match of Valspar 343-6 Nottingham is a deep, muted olive-brown with a subdued gray-green undertone. It reads quiet rather than bright, with low chroma and enough brown influence to keep the green side from feeling clean or vivid.

MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to the selected brand color can be used on vents, speaker grilles, switch covers, mailbox parts, railings, brackets, shutters, hardware, and PVC trim when a darker earth-toned finish is needed. It also fits frames, shelving, baskets, small fixtures, and other sprayable parts where you want a repeatable match across metal, plastic, wood, or previously coated surfaces.

Because this color is dark and has an LRV of 9.55, surface prep and finish matter. On lighter or uneven substrates, more than one coat may be needed for even coverage, and gloss or semi-gloss finishes can make texture, repair edges, and substrate irregularities more noticeable. Film build can also shift how deep the olive-brown reads in the final result.

Frequently Asked Questions About Match of Valspar™ 343-6 Nottingham *

How should I confirm Valspar 343-6 Nottingham before ordering a MyPerfectColor match?

Confirm Valspar 343-6 Nottingham from a physical swatch or a known existing color reference, not from a screen view alone. MyPerfectColor makes a custom-matched paint to that original brand color reference, so the most important step is verifying that the target you want is really 343-6 Nottingham before you order.

If you are matching an existing painted part, compare against a physical reference in the lighting where the item will be used, since screens and lighting can shift how the color appears.

Do I need primer before applying Valspar 343-6 Nottingham in MyPerfectColor paint?

Primer needs depend on the substrate, its condition, and the paint type you are using with Valspar 343-6 Nottingham. Check the prep guidance for the product format you order, since bare, worn, glossy, or uneven surfaces often benefit from primer.

As a general rule, primer does not hurt and can improve adhesion, but it is not always required for every project.

Which finish should I choose for Valspar 343-6 Nottingham when ordering MyPerfectColor paint?

Choose the finish based on how the item will be used and how you want the coated surface to perform. For Valspar 343-6 Nottingham, the gloss level changes the way the matched color looks on the finished item, so the finish is a practical ordering choice, not just an appearance choice.

Higher gloss usually reflects more light and is easier to clean, while lower gloss reduces reflectivity and can be more forgiving on imperfect surfaces. Pick the finish that fits the surface, cleaning needs, and desired durability.

How much MyPerfectColor paint matched to Valspar 343-6 Nottingham do I need?

Coverage depends on the surface size, texture, hiding power, application method, and how many coats you need for Valspar 343-6 Nottingham. A typical can of spray paint covers about 20 square feet with one coat. Other paint formats typically cover between 400 and 600 square feet.

If the surface is rough, porous, dark, or uneven, plan for additional material because coverage can drop and extra coats may be needed.

Where can I find the SDS for MyPerfectColor matched to Valspar 343-6 Nottingham?

The SDS is tied to the MyPerfectColor product or chemistry you order, not to the Valspar 343-6 Nottingham color name alone. Use the SDS for the exact product format you are buying.
