A match of Sherwin Williams 45357 is a deep, warm red with noticeable orange-brown undertones. It reads saturated and earthy rather than clean or cool, and its low LRV means it will appear quite dark on the finished part.

MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to 45357 can be used on mailboxes, railings, vent covers, switch plates, speaker grilles, brackets, frames, hardware, shutters, and other small parts where a dark red needs to be applied evenly across metal, plastic, wood, or previously coated surfaces. It also works for painted accents on furniture components, display pieces, and removable accessories when a matched color is needed on a specific object rather than an entire wall or room.

Because this is a strong, high-chroma color, coverage may be more sensitive to the substrate than a muted neutral, especially over dark, uneven, or patchy surfaces. Finish also changes the reading: glossier coatings tend to make the red look deeper and more intense, while flatter finishes can soften it. Outdoor exposure can be harder on saturated reds than on quieter neutrals, so proper prep and even film build matter for exposed parts.

Frequently Asked Questions About Match of Sherwin Williams™ 45357 *

Where can I find the SDS for Sherwin Williams 45357 when ordering MyPerfectColor paint?

The SDS is tied to the MyPerfectColor paint or chemistry you order, not to the Sherwin Williams 45357 color name by itself. If you need the Safety Data Sheet, use the MyPerfectColor Safety Data Sheets page for the exact product family you are buying, including spray paint or any other format.

For reference, MyPerfectColor Safety Data Sheets can be found at https://www.myperfectcolor.com/Safety-Data-Sheets/33970.htm.

How do I confirm the correct original color reference for Sherwin Williams 45357 before I order a MyPerfectColor match?

Confirm Sherwin Williams 45357 from a physical swatch or a known existing color reference from the original brand, not from a screen alone. MyPerfectColor makes a match of Sherwin Williams 45357 based on the reference color, so the target you confirm is the one that will guide the order.

If the project depends on a close visual match, verify the color before buying so you do not order the wrong reference by mistake.

Can MyPerfectColor match Sherwin Williams 45357 for plastics, and should I use primer?

Yes, MyPerfectColor spray paint matched to Sherwin Williams 45357 can be used on many plastic items, but plastics vary a lot and may need different prep or primer. Testing on the actual material is the safest way to confirm adhesion before coating the full part.

Using the MyPerfectColor primer for acrylic enamel can help improve adhesion on difficult plastic surfaces. If the plastic is unfamiliar or low-energy, test first and follow the surface prep that fits that specific item.

What prep is needed before applying a Sherwin Williams 45357 match over metal or an existing coating?

For metal or an already painted surface, clean off dirt, grease, dust, and other contamination before applying a MyPerfectColor match of Sherwin Williams 45357. If the surface is glossy or slick, scuffing it first can help the new coating grab better.

Check for rust, peeling paint, or other failing areas and correct those problems before coating. The condition of the old surface, along with its gloss and texture, can affect how the new Sherwin Williams 45357 match looks when it dries.

A higher gloss finish usually looks more reflective and can make surface flaws more noticeable, while a lower gloss finish is less reflective and may be more forgiving on imperfect surfaces.
