Changing Material Colour

Hi I’m trying to change the colour of a Material Tint. I have a Material variable called “playerColor”, Also want to add in RGB values. I’ve had a search on the internet but nothing is suitable for what im trying to do.

public Material playerColor;


	void Start()
	{  
		//Code here to change materials _Tint
	}

Code is nothing really just thought it would be something simple

sorry I only know javascript:

var playerColor : Material;

function Start () {
	playerColor = gameObject.renderer.material;	
}

function Update () {
	playerColor.color = Color.red; //or put your custom color
}
