A match of Sherwin Williams HGSW1455 Saxon Grey reads as a light, restrained gray with a slight blue cast. Its very low chroma keeps it quiet rather than colored, and the LRV suggests a mid-light appearance that can shift a bit with finish and substrate.

MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to HGSW1455 Saxon Grey is a practical fit for vents, switch covers, speaker grilles, brackets, shelf supports, mailbox parts, PVC trim pieces, and other small components that need a measured gray finish. It also works on metal, plastic, wood, and previously coated parts after proper surface prep.

Because this is a light, low-chroma color, darker or uneven substrates can show through more readily, so primer and consistent coverage matter. Changes in sheen, texture, or film build can make the color read a little cooler or flatter, especially on small spray-painted parts.

Frequently Asked Questions About Match of Sherwin Williams™ HGSW1455 Saxon Grey *

How do I confirm that HGSW1455 Saxon Grey is the right color before ordering?

Confirm HGSW1455 Saxon Grey from a physical Sherwin-Williams swatch, a painted sample, or another known original-brand reference before you order. Screen images can change with lighting and device settings, so they are not the best way to approve the target color. MyPerfectColor makes a custom match of the selected brand color reference, so the order should be based on the color you want matched, not on how it appears on a monitor.

What is the best way to spray HGSW1455 Saxon Grey for a smooth finish?

For HGSW1455 Saxon Grey, apply light, even coats and keep the can moving so the film builds gradually. Overlap each pass slightly, and avoid heavy wet passes that can run, build texture, or make the finish look uneven. If you are coating a small part, it usually helps to practice on a test piece first so you can judge coverage and dry time before finishing the actual item.

Can HGSW1455 Saxon Grey be sprayed on plastic, and what should I do first?

Yes, HGSW1455 Saxon Grey can be used on many plastics, but plastic types vary a lot. Clean the part well, test the coating on the actual material, and use MyPerfectColor primer for Acrylic Enamel when you want better adhesion on a difficult substrate. If the plastic is slick, flexible, or unknown, a test application is the safest way to confirm the result before coating the full piece.

What prep is needed before spraying HGSW1455 Saxon Grey over metal or an existing coating?

Before spraying HGSW1455 Saxon Grey on metal or over an existing coating, remove grease, dust, and other contamination, then address rust, loose paint, or failing coating edges. Scuff glossy surfaces so the new coating can grip better. The condition, texture, and gloss of the old coating can all affect the final appearance, so a full-part refinish is usually more predictable than trying to blend a small patch next to aged paint.

How should I choose a sheen for HGSW1455 Saxon Grey?

Choose the sheen for HGSW1455 Saxon Grey based on durability, cleanability, and how much reflectivity you want on the finished item. Higher gloss is usually easier to clean and more reflective, while lower gloss reduces shine. Because sheen changes how the same color reads, match the existing surface as closely as practical if the new coating will sit beside it. MyPerfectColor can supply HGSW1455 Saxon Grey in spray paint and other formats for different project needs.
