Match of Sherwin Williams™ 31959 *

Coverage depends on the surface size, texture, hiding power, application method, and how many coats you need. As a planning rule, a typical can of spray paint covers about 20 square feet with one coat.

If you are coating small parts like vents, hardware, PVC pipe, or trim pieces, you may need more than expected if the surface is rough, porous, or a darker color underneath. If you are ordering another MyPerfectColor format instead of spray paint, coverage is often about 400 to 600 square feet per gallon per coat, but always plan around the specific product and the surface you are painting.

Use light, even coats instead of one heavy pass. Keep a consistent spray distance, overlap each pass slightly, and keep the can moving so the coating builds evenly.

Heavy passes can cause runs, uneven sheen, or a muddy-looking color build. This matters most on small objects like fixtures, grilles, switch covers, shelves, or brackets, where spray buildup can show quickly. Let each coat dry according to the directions for the selected MyPerfectColor product before adding the next coat.

Primer needs depend on the substrate, the condition of the surface, and the paint type you are using. A primer never hurts and can improve adhesion, but it is not always required.

If you are painting a hard-to-stick, damaged, or highly absorbent surface, primer is often worth considering before applying a match of Sherwin Williams 31959. Check the prep guidance for the specific MyPerfectColor product you are ordering so you can match the coating to the surface correctly.

Custom-made color matches are not returnable or refundable, so it is important to confirm Sherwin Williams 31959, the product type, the sheen, and the quantity before you place the order.

If you need spray paint, make sure you are ordering the spray format and not another MyPerfectColor format. Taking a moment to verify the reference and the application plan helps avoid ordering the wrong product.

No. The color code identifies the target color, but it does not define sheen, substrate preparation, or how an existing painted surface has aged. Finish, texture, and application can all change how Sherwin Williams 31959 looks after it is applied.

A glossier finish reflects more light than a flatter one, and a rough or porous surface can make the same match read differently than it does on a smooth surface. If you are coating an item that will sit next to an older painted area, expect some visual difference from age, wear, and surface condition.

MyPerfectColor has an original sample of the Sherwin Williams 31959 in its color archive. This enables us to make paint and verify that it matches the original.

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 31959, 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.
