Match of Sherwin Williams™ SW9166 Drift Of Mist *

Yes. MyPerfectColor can supply a custom-matched spray paint for SW9166 Drift Of Mist for small parts like switch covers, vents, knobs, brackets, grilles, and similar items.

This is a match of SW9166 Drift Of Mist made by MyPerfectColor, not the original Sherwin Williams paint. It is a practical choice when you want a repeatable color on removable or hard-to-brush parts.

Coverage depends on the size of the part, the surface texture, how much hiding is needed, and how many coats you plan to apply. A typical spray can covers about 20 square feet with one coat, but small fixtures and textured parts can use more paint than expected.

If you are coating only a few switch plates or vents, one can may be enough. If the substrate is dark, rough, or uneven, plan for extra material so you can apply enough coats for an even result.

Use light, even coats and build coverage gradually instead of trying to cover in one heavy pass. Keep the spray moving, overlap each pass slightly, and hold a consistent distance from the surface so the coating lays down evenly.

Heavy coats can cause runs, uneven sheen, or a muddy-looking color build. For the most consistent result, prep the part well, test your spray pattern first, and follow the drying times on the product label between coats.

The color reference stays SW9166 Drift Of Mist, but the same match can look different in matte, satin, or gloss because finish changes how light reflects off the surface. A lower gloss finish usually looks flatter and can hide small surface flaws better, while a higher gloss finish reflects more light and can make the color read differently.

If the part will sit next to an existing painted item, finish is one of the main reasons the result may not look identical even when the color match is correct.

Choose the sheen based on how the part will be used and how much reflectivity you want. Lower sheen options are usually better when you want less shine and a more forgiving look on small parts, while higher sheen options are often easier to wipe clean and will look more reflective.

Remember that the same SW9166 Drift Of Mist match can appear slightly different as the sheen changes. If you are matching a specific installed part, use the finish that best fits the item's expected use and the surrounding surface.

While MyPerfectColor can provide paint matched to the Sherwin Williams SW9166 Drift Of Mist, 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.
