Behind the Magic: Go Away Green Paint
You've probably never realized this (because that’s the whole point!) but some of the no-so-pretty parts of Disney theme parks, like fire hydrants, show buildings, construction fences and some backstage areas, are all painted a lackluster shade of green known as "Go-Away-Green."
Color experts figured out that by using different shades of green paint, some objects do go unnoticed by guests. For more information on Disney using the magic of just the right color, view my post on why many of the sidewalks are stained red at Walt Disney World.
For those of you who like to use Disney colors in your home, the most common green used is Pear Cactus, made by PPG Paints. However, Disney often uses variations of Go Away Green to match a particular area.
