Match of Sherwin Williams™ SW1157 Euro Gray *

MyPerfectColor custom paint matched to SW1157 Euro Gray is made to order, so it should be chosen carefully before you buy. Confirm the exact color reference, the product type you need, the sheen, and the quantity before placing the order.

No. The same match of SW1157 Euro Gray can look different depending on sheen, because finish changes how much light the coated surface reflects. A flatter finish usually reads less shiny, while a glossier finish can make the color appear brighter or more reflective.

If you are matching an existing item or planning a specific application, pick the sheen as a practical coating choice, not just as a label. The substrate and surface texture also affect how the finished SW1157 Euro Gray coating will look.

Yes. MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to SW1157 Euro Gray is a practical choice for baskets, frames, shelving, decor pieces, furniture accents, and similar items where spray application is easier than brushing.

For small projects, the main decision is whether the object can be cleaned and prepped well enough for paint, and whether spray paint is the right format for the part you are coating. If the item has detail, edges, or hard-to-reach areas, spray application can help you cover it more evenly.

MyPerfectColor spray paint matched to SW1157 Euro Gray sticks well to most plastics, but plastics vary widely and some surfaces need better prep than others. The exact plastic, its texture, and any release agents or oils on the part can affect adhesion.

Test on the actual material first whenever possible, and use the MyPerfectColor primer for Acrylic Enamel if you want to improve adhesion on a difficult substrate. A test piece is the best way to reduce risk before painting the final part.

MyPerfectColor spray paint matched to SW1157 Euro Gray is typically dry to touch within minutes, can usually be recoated in one to two hours, and is fully cured in about two weeks.

Those are different stages, so do not confuse dry to touch with fully cured. If the part will be handled often, assembled, or put back into service, allow enough time for the coating to harden fully before heavy use.

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.

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.
