Match of Sherwin Williams™ HGSW1237 White Citrus *

No. The same HGSW1237 White Citrus color can read differently once the finish changes. Matte, satin, and gloss all reflect light differently, so the finished item may look a little lighter, deeper, or more reflective even when the color match is correct.

If you are matching a specific part, choose the finish that best fits the item and the surrounding surface, because sheen is part of how the color will be seen after application.

Plastic can be a difficult substrate because different plastics behave differently. MyPerfectColor spray paint sticks well to most plastics, but testing on the actual item is still the safest way to confirm adhesion and appearance.

Using the MyPerfectColor primer for acrylic enamel can help improve adhesion on plastics and other low-energy surfaces. If the part is important or hard to replace, test the prep and topcoat on a small area first.

Coverage depends on the size of the item, surface texture, how much hiding is needed, the application method, and how many coats you plan to apply. A typical can of spray paint covers about 20 square feet with one coat.

For other MyPerfectColor paint formats, coverage is often about 400 to 600 square feet per gallon, but real-world results vary with the surface and the way the paint is applied. If the surface is dark, rough, or uneven, plan for extra material.

Use light, even coats instead of one heavy pass. Keep the spray moving, overlap each pass slightly, and hold a consistent distance from the surface so the color builds evenly.

Heavy coats can cause runs, uneven sheen, or a muddy-looking build, especially on small parts and edges. Let each coat dry according to the product directions before applying the next one.

The SDS is tied to the MyPerfectColor product and chemistry, not just the HGSW1237 White Citrus color name. To find it, use the MyPerfectColor Safety Data Sheets page for the specific product you are ordering.

If you are comparing formats, check the SDS for the exact paint type you plan to buy, since spray paint and other product types can have different safety information.

MyPerfectColor has an original sample of the Sherwin Williams HGSW1237 White Citrus 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 HGSW1237 White Citrus, 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.
