Match of Sherwin Williams™ SW7023 Requisite Gray *

Confirm SW7023 Requisite Gray from a physical Sherwin Williams swatch, an approved color sample, or another known existing color reference. Screen images can shift the color enough to lead to the wrong order.

MyPerfectColor matches to the original brand color reference, so the important step is verifying that SW7023 Requisite Gray is the target color before you place the order.

Yes. A match of Sherwin Williams SW7023 Requisite Gray is a practical choice for MyPerfectColor custom spray paint when you want baskets, frames, shelving, decor pieces, or small accessories to coordinate to a known color target.

For these projects, spray paint is often the easiest format because it handles small parts, edges, and detailed shapes more consistently than brushing.

Choose the finish based on how the item will be used, not just on the color name. A finish can change durability, cleanup, and how reflective the final coated part looks.

With SW7023 Requisite Gray, the same color can read a little differently depending on the sheen, so pick the finish that fits the object, handling level, and appearance you need after application.

Even when the color match is correct, SW7023 Requisite Gray can appear different after application because of lighting, placement, surface texture, and nearby materials. The same matched color may read warmer, cooler, lighter, or darker depending on the setting.

This is normal for any paint match. If the item will sit next to an existing painted surface, be aware that sheen and aging differences can make the finished look seem less uniform even when the color reference was matched correctly.

Apply SW7023 Requisite Gray in light, even coats and keep the spray distance consistent. Overlapping passes slightly helps avoid striping, while heavy passes can cause runs, uneven sheen, or muddy-looking buildup.

If the substrate is dark, uneven, or highly absorbent, multiple light coats are usually safer than one heavy coat. Proper surface preparation also helps the matched color read more evenly on the finished item.

While MyPerfectColor can provide paint matched to the Sherwin Williams SW7023 Requisite 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.
