Match of Sherwin Williams™ SW7502 Dry Dock *

Choose the sheen based on how the part will be used and how much reflection you want from SW7502 Dry Dock on the finished item. Lower-sheen finishes reduce glare and can hide surface irregularities better, while higher-sheen finishes are usually easier to wipe clean and can make texture more noticeable. If you are coating something that already has a finish, try to match that sheen as closely as possible so the color reads consistently.

Yes. MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to Sherwin Williams SW7502 Dry Dock is a practical option for small parts and hardware such as switch covers, knobs, vents, speaker grilles, brackets, and trim pieces. Spray application is often the easiest way to get even coverage on removable items with edges, openings, or detailed shapes. Before ordering, confirm that the part can be removed, cleaned, and painted safely.

Yes, plastics often need extra prep because different plastics behave differently. MyPerfectColor spray paint sticks well to many plastics, but you should test on the actual material first, especially if the part is smooth, flexible, or may have mold release on the surface. Using the MyPerfectColor primer for acrylic enamel can improve adhesion on difficult plastic surfaces and reduce the risk of poor bonding.

Clean the part well before priming or spraying, and do not assume one plastic will behave the same as another.

For metal, start by cleaning off dirt, grease, wax, and other contamination before applying MyPerfectColor paint matched to SW7502 Dry Dock. If the surface has rust, loose paint, peeling areas, or chalky residue, address those problems first because they can affect adhesion and the finished appearance. Light scuffing can help the new coating grip a sound existing finish, but damaged coatings should be repaired or removed as needed.

Keep in mind that gloss, texture, and the condition of the old coating can all change how SW7502 Dry Dock looks once applied.

Confirm SW7502 Dry Dock from a physical swatch, labeled sample, or other known original brand reference before ordering. MyPerfectColor matches the selected brand color standard, so the screen image alone is not a reliable way to verify the target color. If you are trying to coordinate with an existing painted item, use the actual reference surface or a trusted physical sample whenever possible.

That step matters because lighting, aging, and previous coatings can make the current surface look different from the original color standard.

MyPerfectColor has an original sample of the Sherwin Williams SW7502 Dry Dock 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 SW7502 Dry Dock, 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.
