A match of Valspar 5009-1 Black Evergreen is a very dark, low-chroma blue-green with a cool, charcoal-leaning cast. In MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to the selected Valspar color reference, it reads subdued rather than bright, with strong depth and a muted finish character.
This color is a practical fit for spray-painted parts that need a dark coordinated look without reading as plain black. It can be used on vents, speaker grilles, switch covers, railings, mailbox hardware, shutter accents, brackets, frames, shelving supports, and other small fixtures or accessories where a sprayed finish is easier than brushing.
Because the color is very dark, surface condition and sheen differences can be more noticeable, especially on metal, plastic, or previously coated parts. A smooth substrate, solid prep, and consistent film build help the color read evenly; finish and thickness can also shift it slightly deeper or softer. On outdoor pieces, weathering and exposure can change the appearance over time more noticeably than on lighter, quieter finishes.

Frequently Asked Questions About Match of Valspar™ 5009-1 Black Evergreen *
Can I order Valspar 5009-1 Black Evergreen as MyPerfectColor custom spray paint for baskets, frames, or hardware?
Yes. MyPerfectColor can make a custom spray paint match of Valspar 5009-1 Black Evergreen for baskets, frames, shelving, hardware, decor pieces, and other small parts where spraying is the practical application method.
When you order, make sure you want a match of the color reference, not the original Valspar paint product. Spray paint is often the right format when the item has edges, curves, or small details that are easier to coat evenly by spraying.
What surface prep should I do before applying Valspar 5009-1 Black Evergreen spray paint to metal, plastic, or wood?
Start by cleaning the item so dirt, dust, oil, and handling residue do not interfere with adhesion. If the surface is glossy, slick, or lightly weathered, use a light scuff where appropriate, then mask any areas you do not want coated.
Because metal, plastic, wood, and older coatings can behave differently, test the MyPerfectColor match of Valspar 5009-1 Black Evergreen on the actual surface before you coat the full item. That test helps you confirm adhesion, coverage, and how the finish reads on that material.
How should I spray a MyPerfectColor match of Valspar 5009-1 Black Evergreen to avoid runs or uneven coverage?
Use light, even coats instead of one heavy pass. Keep the can moving, hold a consistent distance from the surface, and overlap each pass slightly so the film builds gradually.
A match of Valspar 5009-1 Black Evergreen is a dark color, so heavy spraying can make the finish look wet, uneven, or slower to level out. Build coverage in stages until the color looks even across the whole item.
Where do I find the SDS for MyPerfectColor paint matched to Valspar 5009-1 Black Evergreen?
The SDS is tied to the MyPerfectColor product you order, not to the Valspar color name alone. Use the MyPerfectColor Safety Data Sheets information for the specific paint product or chemistry you are buying.
If you need the SDS for a project file or job record, match it to the exact MyPerfectColor item name so you are looking at the correct document for the paint you received.
Will the finish change how Valspar 5009-1 Black Evergreen looks after MyPerfectColor applies it?
Yes. Finish and sheen can change how a match of Valspar 5009-1 Black Evergreen reads after it is sprayed. The color reference does not define gloss level, and the same color can look different on flat, satin, or glossier finishes.
Surface texture also matters. A smooth part, a textured part, and an older coated part can all make the same color read a little differently, so it is smart to test the finish on the actual item before ordering a larger quantity.
