Match of Sherwin Williams™ SW6836 Novel Lilac *

Yes. MyPerfectColor can make a custom spray paint match of Sherwin Williams SW6836 Novel Lilac for projects like baskets, frames, shelving, decor pieces, and other small parts where spray application is practical.

Choose spray paint when the item is removable, awkward to brush, or when you want the part itself matched to the SW6836 Novel Lilac reference. If the piece is metal, plastic, wood, or already painted, surface prep still matters before you spray.

Before spraying SW6836 Novel Lilac over metal or an existing coating, clean away grease, dust, and contamination, then remove rust and any loose paint. Scuff sound glossy coatings so the new paint can grip better.

The gloss, texture, and condition of the old surface can change how a match of SW6836 Novel Lilac looks after it dries. If the part is important or highly visible, test the prep on a small hidden area first.

No. The same match of SW6836 Novel Lilac can read differently in matte, satin, semi-gloss, or gloss because sheen changes how much light reflects and how deep the color appears.

If you are matching an existing item, choose the sheen that fits the surrounding surface, not just the color code. If you are starting from scratch, use sheen as a practical ordering choice for durability, cleanup, and the final look on the finished part.

Before ordering SW6836 Novel Lilac, confirm the brand color reference, the MyPerfectColor product type, the sheen, and the quantity you need. MyPerfectColor is making a custom match to Sherwin Williams SW6836 Novel Lilac, not selling the original Sherwin Williams paint.

Because custom-made color matches are produced to your order, they should be chosen carefully and are not returnable or refundable. If you need the same color on multiple parts, order enough at the same time so you can finish the project consistently.

Choose sheen based on use and surface condition. Lower sheen can be more forgiving on imperfect surfaces, while higher sheen reflects more light and may be easier to clean on handled parts.

For a match of SW6836 Novel Lilac, the sheen is part of the final result, so the same color can look different across matte, satin, and gloss. If the piece will be touched often or needs easier cleanup, consider that when ordering. If the surface has texture or older coating issues, a less reflective sheen may be a better practical fit.

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.

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 Sherwin Williams SW6836 Novel Lilac, 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.
