Match of Sherwin Williams™ HGSW3042 Burnt Auburn *

Confirm HGSW3042 Burnt Auburn from a physical swatch from Sherwin Williams or another known existing color reference, not from screen viewing alone. MyPerfectColor matches to the original brand color standard, so the most important step is making sure HGSW3042 Burnt Auburn is the exact target you want before you place the order.

If you are ordering MyPerfectColor custom spray paint or another MyPerfectColor format, verify the color code, brand reference, and the item you plan to paint so you do not order a match for the wrong color.

Custom-matched orders of HGSW3042 Burnt Auburn are not returnable or refundable, so it is important to confirm the color reference, product type, sheen, and quantity before ordering. MyPerfectColor is supplying its own paint matched to the Sherwin Williams color reference, not the original brand's paint product.

If you are unsure about the exact format you need, review the project first and then place the order only after the selected product matches the surface and application method you plan to use.

For HGSW3042 Burnt Auburn, start by cleaning the surface, removing grease or contaminants, and masking off the areas you do not want coated. Light scuffing can help where appropriate, especially on smooth or glossy surfaces, but the right prep depends on the substrate.

It is also smart to test the MyPerfectColor match on the actual surface before doing a larger application. That helps you confirm adhesion, appearance, and coverage on the material you are actually painting.

For HGSW3042 Burnt Auburn in spray paint form, dry-to-touch, recoat time, and full handling readiness are different stages. Spray paint is usually dry to touch within minutes, can be recoated in about one to two hours, and is fully cured in about two weeks.

If the part will be handled, installed, or assembled, wait for the coating to reach the needed stage for your project rather than relying only on the dry-to-touch time.

Coverage for HGSW3042 Burnt Auburn depends on the surface size, texture, hiding power, application method, and how many coats you need. A typical can of spray paint covers about 20 square feet with one coat.

If you are choosing another MyPerfectColor format, typical coverage is often between 400 and 600 square feet per gallon, but your actual result will still depend on the surface and the number of coats. When in doubt, order enough for test spraying and a full finish coat so you do not run short partway through the job.

MyPerfectColor has an original sample of the Sherwin Williams HGSW3042 Burnt Auburn 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.
