Match of Porter Paints™ 7091-1 York Gray *

The SDS is tied to the MyPerfectColor product made to match 7091-1 York Gray, not to the Porter Paints color name alone. Use the MyPerfectColor Safety Data Sheets page for this product: Safety Data Sheets.

If you need the SDS for a specific MyPerfectColor format, confirm it matches the exact item you plan to order, since the chemistry can differ by product type.

Yes. MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to 7091-1 York Gray is a practical option for baskets, frames, shelving, brackets, hardware, and other small parts that are easier to spray than brush.

For mixed-material or previously coated items, make sure the surface can be painted and prep it before spraying. Spray format is often the better choice when you want a consistent finish on small or detailed pieces.

Apply 7091-1 York Gray in light, even coats from a consistent distance, and overlap each pass slightly. Heavy passes can cause runs, uneven sheen, or a darker-looking build in one area.

Because the way paint is applied can affect how the color reads, it is smart to test on the actual item first. Keep the coats thin and even until you reach the coverage you need.

Coverage depends on the size of the item, the surface texture, how much hiding is needed, and how many coats you plan to apply. A typical can of spray paint covers about 20 square feet with one coat.

If you are coating detailed pieces, expect to use more paint because of overspray and edge coverage. Other MyPerfectColor paint formats, such as house paint, usually cover much more area, often about 400 to 600 square feet per gallon depending on the product and surface.

Start by cleaning off dust, grease, and wax. Lightly scuff smooth surfaces when appropriate, mask off areas you do not want coated, and test the finish on the actual surface before painting the full item.

Prep matters because 7091-1 York Gray is a color match, but the final result also depends on adhesion, substrate texture, and the condition of any existing coating underneath.

MyPerfectColor has an original sample of the Porter Paints 7091-1 York Gray in its color archive. This enables us to make paint and verify that it matches the original.

Please note that if your material is not new then the paint may not work for touch up as your material has aged and is likely different than it was when new. Learn more about our color matching accuracy. If you need a touch up application, send us a part and we can create a touch up solution precisely matching the current color and sheen of your specific materials.

While MyPerfectColor can provide paint matched to the Porter Paints 7091-1 York Gray, we don't provide any crossover information because this is a subjective determination. Every paint company offers its own unique selection of colors and rarely does a color have an exact equivalent in another company's color collection, so determining which color is the best approximation is a judgement call.

However, under the color image on a color page there is a link that says "Explore Related Colors". Clicking this link displays colors with similar values and you can look for any colors from the company you want.

Keep in mind that this just shows similar colors based on the color values we have stored in our database. It doesn't mean it is the same or give any approximation about how close the color is. You can play around with the Hue, Lightness and Chroma sliders to expand the selection.
