Match of Sherwin Williams™ UO02 Anew Gray *

Confirm UO02 Anew Gray from a physical swatch from Sherwin Williams or another known existing reference, not from how it looks on a screen. MyPerfectColor makes a match of UO02 Anew Gray in its own paint, so the order should be based on the original brand color target you want matched. If the item must line up with an existing painted surface, verify the target first because aging, sheen, and substrate can change how the color reads.

Yes, MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to UO02 Anew Gray can be used on many plastics, but plastics vary a lot. Test on the actual part first when possible, and use the MyPerfectColor primer for Acrylic Enamel to improve adhesion on difficult surfaces. Cleaning and surface prep matter because low-energy plastics can accept coatings differently from one part to another.

Spray paint matched to UO02 Anew Gray is typically dry to the touch within minutes, but that is not the same as ready for another coat or full handling. Plan to recoat in about 1 to 2 hours, and allow about two weeks for full cure before expecting maximum durability. If the part will be handled or assembled soon after painting, treat those steps separately from dry to touch.

Choose the sheen based on how the part will be used, not just the color itself. Higher gloss finishes are more reflective, usually clean more easily, and can make UO02 Anew Gray look different on the finished item than a flatter finish. Lower-gloss finishes reduce reflectivity but may be harder to clean or less durable depending on the format and surface. If you are coating a part that must blend with an existing painted area, the sheen choice is as important as the color match.

Not exactly. After a match of UO02 Anew Gray is applied, lighting, placement, sheen, texture, and nearby surfaces can all change how it reads on the finished item. This is why a color that is correct by reference can still look a little different on a wall, fixture, or part once it is installed. If appearance match is critical, evaluate the finished item in the actual location and lighting where it will be used.

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.

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 UO02 Anew Gray, 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.

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.
