Step 1: Select Paint Type / Application


A match of Sherwin Williams 94966 is a dark, warm red with a brown cast and a slightly earthy orange undertone. With an LRV of 7.78, it reads low and deep rather than bright, and the stronger chroma keeps it from looking flat or gray.

MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to 94966 is well suited to smaller parts and accessories that need a deep red finish: metal brackets, shelf hardware, mailboxes, railings, switch plates, speaker grilles, vent covers, shutter hardware, and trim pieces. It can also be used on wood, PVC, plastic, or previously coated components after proper prep when a spray-applied match is needed on removable or awkward shapes.

Because this is a dark, saturated color, surface prep and finish matter. Gloss or satin sheens can make texture, sanding marks, and substrate flaws more visible, and the final appearance can shift with film build and the material underneath. Over light or uneven surfaces, more than one coat may be needed for even coverage and a consistent red-brown read, especially on exterior parts exposed to weather and sunlight.
