Step 1: Select Paint Type / Application


A match of Valspar 93-28A New Forest reads as a very dark, muted green with a teal lean and a slight gray cast. The low LRV gives it near-black depth, while the modest chroma keeps the color subdued rather than bright or clean.

MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to the selected brand color can work well on exterior vents, shutter hardware, railings, mailboxes, downspouts, switch plates, speaker grilles, brackets, and PVC trim pieces. The color's low-key character suits small parts and accessories where a dark green-teal finish needs to stay controlled and practical.

As with many deep colors, the finished look depends heavily on substrate, prep, and sheen. Glossy finishes can make texture, edges, and scratches more noticeable, while uneven or porous surfaces may show variation more clearly. Careful surface preparation and consistent film build help the color read evenly.

Frequently Asked Questions About Match of Valspar™ 93-28A New Forest *

Can I order 93-28A New Forest by Valspar as spray paint for baskets, frames, shelving, or decor pieces?

Yes. MyPerfectColor can make a custom spray paint match of 93-28A New Forest for project items like baskets, frames, shelving, brackets, and other removable parts where spray application is practical. This is a MyPerfectColor match to the selected Valspar color reference, not the original Valspar paint product.

For the best result, make sure the item is cleaned and prepared for the material you are painting, since the final look can change with substrate, texture, and film build.

Will 93-28A New Forest spray paint stick to plastic surfaces?

Plastic can be a good candidate for MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to 93-28A New Forest, but plastics vary a lot and some are difficult to coat. The safest approach is to test on the actual plastic before starting the full project.

MyPerfectColor spray paint sticks well to most plastics, and using the MyPerfectColor primer for acrylic enamel can improve adhesion on challenging surfaces. Clean the part well and follow the prep steps that fit the specific plastic.

How much 93-28A New Forest spray paint should I order for my project?

Coverage depends on the surface size, texture, how much hiding is needed, the spray method, and how many coats the project will take. As a general planning guide, one can of spray paint typically covers about 20 square feet with one coat.

If your item is textured, porous, dark, or irregular, plan for extra material so you do not run short while finishing the job. For larger areas, the required quantity can change quickly once you factor in second coats and overspray.

How do I confirm that 93-28A New Forest is the right Valspar color before ordering a match?

Confirm 93-28A New Forest from a physical swatch, a known existing painted sample, or another reliable original brand color reference before placing the order. Screen color can shift with lighting and device settings, so it is not the best final approval method.

MyPerfectColor matches to the original brand color standard, so the goal is to verify that 93-28A New Forest is the exact target you want, not just a color that looks similar on a screen or on an aged surface.

Where can I find the SDS for 93-28A New Forest paint?

The SDS is tied to the MyPerfectColor paint product and its chemistry, not to the color name alone. If you are ordering a match of 93-28A New Forest, check the MyPerfectColor Safety Data Sheets page for the SDS that applies to the product format you are buying.

Do not assume that a color name by itself tells you the safety or handling details for the finished product.
