Match of Sherwin Williams™ SW9173 Shiitake *

Yes, MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to SW9173 Shiitake can be used on many plastic parts, but plastics vary a lot. Test on the actual plastic first if you can.

For better adhesion, use the MyPerfectColor primer for acrylic enamel before applying the color coat. Clean the part well and follow the prep steps for that specific plastic, because some low-energy surfaces need more than simple cleaning.

Finish changes how SW9173 Shiitake reflects light, so the same color can read differently in different sheens. A gloss finish will usually look more reflective, while a flatter finish will reduce reflection and can make the color appear less bright.

This is a practical coating choice, not just a style choice. If the item will sit next to another coated part, use the same or a closely related finish when possible, and test on the actual material because substrate texture also affects the final appearance.

The SDS is tied to the MyPerfectColor paint product and chemistry, not to the SW9173 Shiitake color name by itself. You need the SDS for the specific MyPerfectColor product format you are ordering.

MyPerfectColor Safety Data Sheets can be found on the MyPerfectColor Safety Data Sheets page. If you are unsure which SDS applies, check the product page for the exact spray paint or other format before you order.

Confirm the color reference, the MyPerfectColor product type, the sheen, and the quantity before you place the order for SW9173 Shiitake. MyPerfectColor makes a custom match of the selected brand color reference, so the ordering details matter.

Custom-made color matches are not returnable or refundable, so it is best to be certain about the exact SW9173 Shiitake reference and the finish you need before checkout.

Yes, but prep matters. For metal or an existing coating, clean off dirt, oil, and other contamination, and remove rust or failing coating before applying MyPerfectColor paint matched to SW9173 Shiitake.

Scuffing a sound existing coating can help adhesion, but gloss, texture, and the condition of the old finish can still affect the final appearance. If the substrate or old coating is questionable, test a small area first and use primer when the surface needs it.

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 SW9173 Shiitake, 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.
