Match of Sherwin Williams™ SW2072 Portico *

Yes, but the surface condition matters. For metal or a previously coated part, clean off dirt, grease, and contamination first, and address any rust before painting. If the old coating is glossy or smooth, scuff sanding helps the new coating grip better.

Keep in mind that gloss, texture, and the condition of the existing finish can change how SW2072 Portico reads after it dries. MyPerfectColor can make a match of SW2072 Portico, but the final look will still depend on the surface you paint over.

Plastic can be painted, but plastics vary a lot, so testing on the actual item is important. MyPerfectColor spray paint sticks well to most plastics, but for better adhesion on difficult or low-energy surfaces, use the MyPerfectColor primer for acrylic enamel before applying SW2072 Portico.

If the plastic is flexible, slick, or unknown, test a small area first. That helps you confirm adhesion and finish before you coat the full part.

Coverage depends on the size of the item, the texture of the surface, how well the color hides, and how many coats you plan to apply. For MyPerfectColor spray paint matched to SW2072 Portico, a typical can covers about 20 square feet with one coat.

If the surface is rough, porous, or a different color underneath, plan for more paint. For non-spray paint formats, coverage is usually much higher, often in the 400 to 600 square foot range depending on the product.

Dry to touch, recoat time, and full cure are different stages. MyPerfectColor spray paint matched to SW2072 Portico is typically dry to touch within minutes, can usually be recoated in one to two hours, and is fully cured in about two weeks.

Do not confuse dry to touch with fully cured. If you handle the part too soon, you can mark or damage the finish even though it feels dry on the surface.

Before ordering, confirm that SW2072 Portico is the exact color reference you want, then choose the MyPerfectColor product type, sheen, and quantity that fit your project. This matters because the item you receive is MyPerfectColor paint matched to SW2072 Portico, not the original Sherwin Williams paint product.

Custom-made color matches are not returnable or refundable, so checking the reference and the format before you order is the safest way to avoid a mismatch with your project needs.

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.

While MyPerfectColor can provide paint matched to the Sherwin Williams SW2072 Portico, 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.

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.
