Match of Sherwin Williams™ HGSW3471 Black Fox *

Confirm HGSW3471 Black Fox from a physical swatch, a known existing painted part, or another trusted original brand color reference before ordering. Screen views can shift the appearance of Black Fox, so the safest way to order is to verify the target color from the actual reference you want matched.

MyPerfectColor makes its own paint matched to the selected brand color reference, so the order should be based on the original Black Fox target rather than on how it looks on a monitor.

Coverage for a match of HGSW3471 Black Fox 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. Other paint formats typically cover about 400 to 600 square feet.

If you are coating rough, porous, dark, or unevenly colored surfaces, plan for more paint than a smooth, sealed surface would need. For small parts like vents, trim pieces, hardware, or fixtures, the main decision is usually how many coats you will apply rather than total area alone.

For a smooth result with HGSW3471 Black Fox, apply light, even coats instead of one heavy pass. Keep the spray moving, overlap passes slightly, and hold a consistent distance from the part so the coating builds evenly.

Heavy passes can cause runs, uneven sheen, or a muddy look in the finished match. This matters most on small parts, fixtures, grilles, brackets, and other items where the surface is easy to overcoat in one spot.

Safety Data Sheet information is tied to the MyPerfectColor product and chemistry, not the HGSW3471 Black Fox color name alone. If you need SDS details for the paint you are ordering, use the MyPerfectColor SDS page here: Safety Data Sheets.

Yes. Finish is a practical coating variable that changes reflectivity, which changes how HGSW3471 Black Fox reads on the finished item. The same color can look different in matte, satin, or glossier coatings because the surface reflects light differently.

If you are matching a specific item, choose the finish that best fits the part you are coating, since sheen can affect the final appearance even when the color match itself is correct.

While MyPerfectColor can provide paint matched to the Sherwin Williams HGSW3471 Black Fox, 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.
