Match of Sherwin Williams™ SW1003 First Star *

SW1003 First Star in MyPerfectColor custom spray paint can work on many plastics, but plastic types vary a lot. Test the actual part first, clean it well, and use the MyPerfectColor primer for Acrylic Enamel if you want better adhesion on a difficult substrate.

The color reference does not control adhesion by itself, so the surface prep matters as much as the color match.

Coverage for SW1003 First Star depends on the surface size, texture, hiding power, application method, and how many coats you need. A typical can of spray paint covers about 20 square feet with one coat.

If you are coating a rough, dark, or uneven surface, plan for more material than you would for a smooth, light surface. Other MyPerfectColor paint formats typically cover about 400 to 600 square feet, but that is not a spray-paint estimate.

The SDS for SW1003 First Star is tied to the specific MyPerfectColor product and chemistry, not to the color name alone. If you need the SDS, check the MyPerfectColor Safety Data Sheets page for the exact product format you plan to order.

If you are comparing spray paint with another format, do not assume they share the same SDS.

Before ordering SW1003 First Star, confirm the brand reference, MyPerfectColor product type, sheen, and quantity. Custom-made color matches are not returnable or refundable, so the safest time to catch an error is before checkout.

If you are unsure about the target surface or finish, decide that first and then order the MyPerfectColor format that fits the job.

For SW1003 First Star, apply several light, even coats instead of one heavy pass. Keep the can moving, overlap each pass slightly, and hold a consistent spraying distance to reduce runs, uneven sheen, and color build-up.

Heavy coats can make the finish look muddy or wet before it levels, so let each coat flash off according to the product directions before adding the next one.

While MyPerfectColor can provide paint matched to the Sherwin Williams SW1003 First Star, 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.
