Match of Sherwin Williams™ SW3048 Yosemite Gold *

Confirm SW3048 Yosemite Gold from a physical swatch, a known existing painted part, or another trusted color reference from the original Sherwin Williams color system before you order. Screen images can shift with lighting and display settings, so MyPerfectColor should be matched to the original color reference, not to what the color looks like on your monitor.

If you are matching an existing surface, check the target under the same lighting and remember that age, sheen, and substrate can change how the color reads.

Yes, but plastics vary a lot, so test SW3048 Yosemite Gold on the actual part first. MyPerfectColor spray paint can work on many plastic items, but adhesion depends on the specific plastic, surface texture, and prep.

For better results on difficult plastics, clean the part well, scuff if appropriate, and use the MyPerfectColor primer for acrylic enamel to improve adhesion before applying the color coat.

The SDS is tied to the MyPerfectColor paint product and chemistry, not to the SW3048 Yosemite Gold color name alone. Check the MyPerfectColor Safety Data Sheets page for the exact product format you plan to order, such as spray paint or another MyPerfectColor chemistry.

If you need compliance details for a specific job, review the SDS for the exact product you will use, since different formats can have different safety information.

Choose the finish based on how the part will be used and what you want the coating to do. Lower gloss reduces reflectivity, while higher gloss is usually easier to wipe clean and can feel more durable on handled items like hardware or fixtures.

Keep in mind that SW3048 Yosemite Gold can look a little different at different sheen levels, so pick the finish that fits the application and any nearby parts you need to coordinate.

Yes. A match of Sherwin Williams SW3048 Yosemite Gold can be ordered as MyPerfectColor custom spray paint for small parts such as switch covers, vents, knobs, brackets, speaker grilles, trim pieces, and similar items where a smooth sprayed finish is practical.

While MyPerfectColor can provide paint matched to the Sherwin Williams SW3048 Yosemite Gold, 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.
