Match of Sherwin Williams™ SW1466 Almost Aqua *

Coverage depends on the surface size, texture, how much hiding power the project needs, application method, and how many coats you plan to apply. For spray paint, a typical can covers about 20 square feet with one coat. For other paint formats, coverage is often around 400 to 600 square feet, but the actual result can vary by surface and application.

If SW1466 Almost Aqua is going over a rough, porous, dark, or uneven surface, plan for extra material so you are not short after the first coat.

Plastics vary a lot, so testing on the actual item is important before painting the full project. MyPerfectColor spray paint sticks well to most plastics, but adhesion can improve when you use the MyPerfectColor primer for Acrylic Enamel first.

If the part is a low-energy or hard-to-bond plastic, a test spot helps confirm adhesion and finish before you commit to the whole piece.

Confirm SW1466 Almost Aqua from a physical swatch or another known existing color reference, not from a screen image alone. MyPerfectColor is making a custom match to the selected brand color reference, so verifying the target color first helps avoid ordering the wrong match.

The color code and name identify the reference color, but they do not define sheen, substrate prep, or how an existing painted surface has aged. If you already have a known SW1466 Almost Aqua reference, order against that standard rather than against a digital photo.

Yes. MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to SW1466 Almost Aqua is a practical option for baskets, frames, shelving, furniture accents, decor pieces, hardware, and similar items where spray application is easier than brushing.

This is most useful when you want a repeatable match of SW1466 Almost Aqua on a small or removable object, or when the project includes detailed parts that are easier to coat evenly with spray paint.

Clean the surface first, then check for rust, dirt, grease, or other contamination that could affect adhesion. If the metal or old coating is glossy or slick, scuffing it can help the new coating bond better.

The condition of the old finish matters because gloss, texture, and wear can change how SW1466 Almost Aqua looks after it dries. A test application is a good idea when you are coating over an existing finish or working on a part that needs a close visual result.

MyPerfectColor has an original sample of the Sherwin Williams SW1466 Almost Aqua 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 SW1466 Almost Aqua, 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.
