Match of Sherwin Williams™ SW6131 Chamois *

Confirm SW6131 Chamois from a physical Sherwin Williams swatch, an original color chip, or a known existing reference before ordering. Screen viewing can shift the color enough to cause a wrong purchase, and MyPerfectColor matches the selected brand color reference rather than the look of an aged painted surface. If you are matching an existing item, compare it to the original color reference whenever possible, not just to what you see on a monitor.

Choose the finish based on how the item will be used and how much reflectivity you want on the finished surface. Higher-gloss finishes are usually easier to clean and can be more durable-looking, while lower-gloss finishes reduce shine and may make surface texture less obvious. Because gloss level changes how SW6131 Chamois reads on the object, try to match the sheen to the surrounding parts or the original target finish when appearance consistency matters.

Plan quantity based on the size of the item, surface texture, hiding power, application method, and the number of coats needed. A typical can of spray paint covers about 20 square feet with one coat, but real coverage can be lower on textured, porous, or dark surfaces. For non-spray paints, coverage is typically about 400 to 600 square feet, depending on the product and surface. If the substrate is uneven or the project needs multiple coats for full coverage, order extra so you do not run short before the color is uniform.

Spray paint is usually dry to the touch within minutes, but that is not the same as being ready for another coat or for full handling. Plan to recoat in about 1 to 2 hours, and allow about 2 weeks for full cure before heavy use or tight assembly. Dry time can vary with temperature, humidity, film thickness, and the surface being painted, so test a small area if the project has a strict schedule.

Yes, spray paint is often a practical choice for small parts and accessories such as baskets, frames, shelving, brackets, knobs, hardware, and decor pieces that need to coordinate with SW6131 Chamois. It also works well for removable items and detailed surfaces where a brush would leave marks. Make sure the part is properly cleaned and prepared for the substrate, and use the right primer or adhesion steps if the material is metal, plastic, wicker, or another difficult surface.

MyPerfectColor supplies its own paint matched to the selected brand color, so the main goal is to get a usable match of SW6131 Chamois on the item you are painting, not to recreate Sherwin Williams' original product line.

MyPerfectColor has an original sample of the Sherwin Williams SW6131 Chamois 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.

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 SW6131 Chamois, 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.
