A match of Behr PMD-47 Martini Olive is a muted olive green with moderate depth, low chroma, and a slightly yellow, earth-leaning undertone. The LRV of 20.94 places it in a deeper range, so it reads more grounded than bright or clean green.
MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to this selected brand color is a practical fit for vents, switch covers, railings, shutters, mailboxes, speaker grilles, brackets, hardware, and other small parts that need a coordinated olive finish. It can also be used on PVC, metal fixtures, frames, shelving, baskets, and furniture accents where spray application is easier than brushing.
Because this is a restrained, mid-to-deep color, it generally hides the surface underneath better than a very light color, but finish, substrate, and texture still affect the result. Gloss level can shift how much the olive reads yellow or brown, and uneven repairs or surface profile can remain visible in the final film. For exterior pieces, the quieter chroma is less likely to show harsh color shift than a vivid color, but prep and coat build still matter.

Frequently Asked Questions About Match of Behr™ PMD-47 Martini Olive *
How should I confirm Behr PMD-47 Martini Olive before ordering a MyPerfectColor match?
Confirm the color from a physical swatch, an existing painted part, or another known original reference for Behr PMD-47 Martini Olive before you order. Screen images can shift with device settings and lighting, so they are not a reliable approval method.
MyPerfectColor makes a custom-matched paint to the selected brand color reference, so the key decision is making sure PMD-47 Martini Olive is the correct target color before purchase.
Will the finish change how Behr PMD-47 Martini Olive looks after I order a MyPerfectColor match?
Yes. Finish and sheen change how light reflects off the surface, so a match of Behr PMD-47 Martini Olive can look different after application depending on the coating finish you choose.
The color reference stays the same, but the final appearance on the item can shift because gloss, satin, and flatter finishes do not reflect light the same way.
Can I use Behr PMD-47 Martini Olive MyPerfectColor spray paint on plastic parts?
Often yes, but plastics vary a lot, so test on the actual plastic before painting the full part. MyPerfectColor spray paint sticks well to most plastics, and using the MyPerfectColor primer can improve adhesion when the substrate is difficult.
If you are painting a plastic grille, cover, trim piece, or other removable part in Behr PMD-47 Martini Olive, a test application is the safest way to confirm adhesion and appearance on that specific material.
How long does Behr PMD-47 Martini Olive MyPerfectColor spray paint take to dry and recoat?
For Behr PMD-47 Martini Olive spray paint, dry to the touch is typically within minutes. Recoat timing is usually one to two hours, and full cure is about two weeks.
That means the part may feel dry quickly, but it is not fully cured or ready for full handling right away. Plan your project around those separate stages if you need to assemble, install, or stack parts after painting.
What prep should I do before spraying Behr PMD-47 Martini Olive over metal or an old coating?
Clean the surface first, then remove rust, loose material, and contamination before applying a match of Behr PMD-47 Martini Olive. If the existing coating is glossy or smooth, scuffing it can help the new paint bond better.
The condition of the old coating matters because gloss, texture, and wear can affect the final look even when the color match is correct. If the metal has rust or an unknown finish, test a small area first.
