Step 1: Select Paint Type / Application


A match of Sherwin Williams SW9036 Retro Mint is a light, muted mint green with a soft, slightly yellow-green undertone. It reads more restrained than bright, with enough color to be clearly mint but not so much that it turns vivid or neon.

MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to the selected Sherwin-Williams color reference is useful for vents, switch plates, speaker grilles, brackets, railings, mailboxes, PVC trim, basket frames, shelving supports, knobs, and other small parts where a repeatable mint finish matters. It can also work for appliance trim, hardware, and removable accessories that need to coordinate with an existing painted item.

Because this is a light color, darker substrates or uneven older coatings may show through more easily and may need additional coats for even color. Surface texture and sheen can also shift how soft or clear the mint appears, so a consistent prep and finish matter. For exterior pieces, weather and sunlight can gradually change the look of lighter greens.

Frequently Asked Questions About Match of Sherwin Williams™ SW9036 Retro Mint *

How should I confirm SW9036 Retro Mint before ordering a MyPerfectColor match?

Confirm SW9036 Retro Mint from a physical Sherwin Williams swatch, fan deck, labeled sample, or an existing painted object that is known to use that color. Screen images can shift with lighting and device settings, so they are not reliable enough for final ordering.

MyPerfectColor makes a custom-matched paint to the selected brand color reference, so the key decision is whether SW9036 Retro Mint is the exact target color you want. The code identifies the color target, but it does not define sheen, product type, or how an older painted surface will look after recoating.

Can SW9036 Retro Mint be ordered in MyPerfectColor spray paint for plastic parts, and do I need primer?

Yes. A match of Sherwin Williams SW9036 Retro Mint can be ordered as MyPerfectColor custom spray paint for many plastic parts, but plastics vary a lot, so it is important to test on the actual item first.

For better adhesion, use the MyPerfectColor primer for acrylic enamel before topcoating. That is especially helpful on low-energy or unfamiliar plastics where adhesion risk is higher. A test piece is the safest way to confirm prep and adhesion before you commit to the full part.

What should I consider when choosing a finish for SW9036 Retro Mint in MyPerfectColor paint?

For SW9036 Retro Mint, the finish choice affects both appearance and performance. Higher gloss usually gives more reflectivity and is easier to clean, while lower gloss reduces shine and can hide small surface flaws better.

Keep in mind that the same matched color can look different across gloss levels, textures, and substrates. If you are matching SW9036 Retro Mint on a part that must look a certain way in real use, choose the finish based on how durable, washable, or reflective the finished item needs to be.
