A match of Sherwin Williams GS17 Stunning Shade is a dark, muted gray that sits close to charcoal, with a subtle red-violet undertone. The low chroma keeps it quiet rather than colorful, and the low LRV gives it a deep, subdued appearance on the finished surface.
MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to this color is useful on sprayable parts where a restrained dark finish is needed, such as HVAC vents, speaker grilles, switch plates, brackets, railings, metal frames, shelving supports, mailboxes, hardware, and exterior fixture covers. It can also be applied to PVC trim pieces, shutters, and other removable components when a repeatable match to the selected brand color is needed.
Because this is a dark color, surface prep and finish can affect the result noticeably. Texture, sheen, and substrate color can change how deep or warm it reads, and uneven base material may show through more than it would in a lighter color. Consistent film build matters, especially on parts where a smooth, even appearance is important.

Confirm GS17 Stunning Shade from a physical Sherwin Williams swatch or a known existing painted reference, not from a screen image alone. MyPerfectColor matches to the original brand color standard, so the code by itself does not tell you sheen, product line, or how an aged surface will appear.
If you are matching an existing part, verify the actual target color before you place the order.
Yes, but plastics vary a lot, so a match of GS17 Stunning Shade may need different prep depending on the item. MyPerfectColor spray paint adheres well to most plastics, but using the MyPerfectColor primer for Acrylic Enamel can improve adhesion.
If the plastic is unfamiliar or hard to coat, test on the actual material first so you can check adhesion before finishing the whole part.
Use light, even coats for GS17 Stunning Shade and keep the can moving so you do not build heavy wet spots in one area. Slight overlap between passes helps the color lay down more uniformly.
Avoid heavy passes, because they can cause runs, uneven sheen, or a muddy-looking finish. Let each coat dry enough before applying the next one.
Safety Data Sheet information is tied to the exact MyPerfectColor paint product and chemistry, not to GS17 Stunning Shade by name alone. If you need the SDS, use the MyPerfectColor Safety Data Sheets page for the specific product format you plan to order.
Confirm the exact product first if the chemistry matters for your project or compliance review.
A match of Sherwin Williams GS17 Stunning Shade can read differently after application because lighting, placement, sheen, and nearby surfaces all affect how the matched coating appears. A correct match can still look a little lighter, darker, warmer, or cooler once it is on the part.
If the item will sit next to an existing painted surface, judge it in the same lighting where it will be used.

While MyPerfectColor can provide paint matched to the Sherwin Williams GS17 Stunning Shade, 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.
