Match of Sherwin Williams™ SW9014 Pollen Powder *

Use light, even coats and keep the can moving so you do not build up a heavy wet film in one pass. Hold the spray at a consistent distance, overlap each pass slightly, and avoid stopping in one spot. Heavy passes can cause runs, uneven sheen, or a muddy looking color build. Let each coat dry according to the product directions before applying the next coat.

Yes. Finish and sheen affect how much light the coating reflects, and that changes how SW9014 Pollen Powder reads on the finished item. A glossier finish usually looks brighter and can make surface texture more noticeable, while a flatter finish reduces reflectivity and can make the color read differently. The code identifies the color target, but the finish is still a separate ordering choice that affects the final appearance.

Clean the surface first so oil, dirt, dust, and other contamination do not interfere with adhesion. If the metal is smooth or glossy, scuff sanding helps the new coating grab. Check for rust, loose paint, or chalking and remove anything unstable before painting. The condition of the old coating, including its gloss and texture, can affect how SW9014 Pollen Powder looks after it is sprayed, so test prep on a small area when the surface is in poor condition.

A match of Sherwin Williams SW9014 Pollen Powder is a practical choice when you need MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to the selected brand color on small or awkward parts. It is useful for trim details, fixtures, railings, vents, pipes, hardware, accessories, and other items that are easier to coat with spray paint than with a brush. It also works well for removable or repeatable parts where you want the item to coordinate with a known paint color reference.

Coverage depends on the surface size, texture, how much hiding is needed, the application method, and the number of coats required. A typical can of spray paint covers about 20 square feet with one coat, but rough or porous surfaces may use more. If you are painting a larger part or more than one item, calculate for the total area and plan for extra coats if the substrate shows through.

While MyPerfectColor can provide paint matched to the Sherwin Williams SW9014 Pollen Powder, 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.
