A match of Sherwin Williams HGSW1031 Cerise reads as a dark, saturated red-berry with a warm red base and a slight blue-red undertone. Its low LRV gives it an inky depth, while the chroma keeps the color active rather than brown or flat. MyPerfectColor makes a custom match to this brand color reference in its own paint, not the original brand product.

For sprayable parts, this color can work on metal brackets, shelf supports, lamp bases, switch plates, speaker grilles, vent covers, railings, mailbox components, picture frames, cabinet pulls, and small furniture accents. It is also practical for PVC trim pieces, access panels, and removable fixtures when you need the part itself to carry the color reference cleanly.

Because the color is dark and fairly saturated, surface prep, substrate color, and finish will affect how it reads. Light or uneven substrates may show through until the coating builds, and changes in gloss can make the tone seem more red, more plum, or slightly deeper. On exterior parts, consistent film build and proper topcoat selection help the color hold its appearance better.

Frequently Asked Questions About Match of Sherwin Williams™ HGSW1031 Cerise *

Does HGSW1031 Cerise need primer before I spray it?

Primer depends on the surface, its condition, and the paint system you are using. For HGSW1031 Cerise, a primer is often a good idea on bare, patched, glossy, porous, or hard-to-stick substrates because it can improve adhesion and help the finish build more evenly. It is not always required, so check the prep guidance for the exact MyPerfectColor product you plan to order. If you are unsure, testing on the actual surface is the safest way to confirm adhesion.

Where can I find the SDS for HGSW1031 Cerise?

The SDS is tied to the MyPerfectColor product and chemistry, not to the HGSW1031 Cerise color name by itself. Use the MyPerfectColor Safety Data Sheets page for the exact product you are ordering: Safety Data Sheets. If you change product format, check the SDS for that exact format before use.

What should I confirm before ordering HGSW1031 Cerise as a custom match?

Before ordering HGSW1031 Cerise, confirm the reference color, the MyPerfectColor product type, the sheen, and the quantity you need. MyPerfectColor makes a custom match of the selected brand color, which is not the same as buying Sherwin Williams original paint. Custom-made color orders should be chosen carefully because they are not returnable or refundable.

Can HGSW1031 Cerise be used on plastics and other difficult substrates?

Yes, but plastics vary a lot, so HGSW1031 Cerise should be tested on the actual material first. MyPerfectColor spray paint sticks well to most plastics, and using the MyPerfectColor primer for acrylic enamel can improve adhesion on difficult or low-energy surfaces. If the part is a smooth, flexible, or unfamiliar plastic, a test panel is the safest way to avoid adhesion problems.

How much HGSW1031 Cerise spray paint do I need for my project?

Coverage depends on the size of the part, surface texture, hiding power, application method, and how many coats are needed. A typical can of spray paint covers about 20 square feet with one coat, but HGSW1031 Cerise is a vivid color, so you may need extra coats for even coverage over dark or uneven substrates. For larger projects or multiple parts, plan conservatively and buy enough for the full job rather than only the first coat.
