MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to SW2170 Atelier Tan is a warm, muted tan with orange-brown undertones and moderate depth. It sits in the earthy-neutral range rather than reading as a pale beige or a strong brown, so the color tends to look calm, slightly warm, and low in chroma.
For spray-painted parts, this color can work on vent covers, switch plates, speaker grilles, mailboxes, shutters, PVC trim, railings, brackets, cabinet pulls, frames, baskets, and small shelving pieces when you want a coordinated tan that does not pull bright. It is also a practical choice for hardware, accessories, and other removable components where a repeatable match matters across metal, plastic, wood, or previously coated surfaces.
At this depth, the color usually covers more readily than very light tones, but sheen, texture, and film build can still change how warm or muted it appears after spraying. On smooth metal it may read a little cleaner, while textured or porous surfaces can make it look softer and slightly deeper. As with any custom match, preparation and a consistent finish affect the final result.

Confirm SW2170 Atelier Tan from a physical Sherwin Williams swatch or another known existing reference, not from a screen image alone. MyPerfectColor makes a match of SW2170 Atelier Tan based on that original brand color reference, so the order is safest when the target color has already been verified from a real sample or known reference.
If you only have a photo, the color on screen can shift with device settings and lighting, which can lead to the wrong order.
Before ordering SW2170 Atelier Tan, confirm the brand color reference, the MyPerfectColor product format, the sheen, and the quantity you need. Custom color matches are made to order, so choosing the wrong color reference or finish can create a mismatch with the project.
These custom color orders are not returnable or refundable, so it is best to verify the details before you submit the order.
The SDS for SW2170 Atelier Tan depends on the MyPerfectColor product you order, not the color name by itself. Use the Safety Data Sheets page here: https://www.myperfectcolor.com/Safety-Data-Sheets/33970.htm.
If you are comparing spray paint to another format, check the SDS for the exact MyPerfectColor product and chemistry you plan to use.
The best finish for SW2170 Atelier Tan depends on the object and the result you need. Higher-gloss finishes are usually easier to wipe clean and can feel more durable, but they also reflect more light and can make the color read differently on the finished item.
Lower-gloss finishes reduce reflection, but they may show wear or dirt differently. Match the finish to the application, not just the color.
Even when SW2170 Atelier Tan is matched correctly, the final look can change after application because lighting, sheen, nearby surfaces, texture, and the substrate all affect how the color reads. A smooth metal part, a plastic vent, and a painted wall can each make the same match look a little different.
For parts that will sit next to an existing surface, judge the finished item in its real location and under the lighting it will normally have.
MyPerfectColor has an original sample of the Sherwin Williams SW2170 Atelier Tan 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. Learn more about our color matching accuracy. 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 SW2170 Atelier Tan, 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.
