A match of Sherwin Williams 94950 reads as a very dark, warm red with a slight brown or brick undertone. It has a low-LRV, heavy appearance and stays clearly in the red family, but without the bright or clean look of a pure red.

MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to the selected Sherwin-Williams 94950 reference can be used on railings, mailbox parts, shutter hardware, vent covers, speaker grilles, brackets, switch plates, and other small pieces that need a deep red finish. It can also be applied to removable metal, plastic, wood, or previously coated parts when the surface is properly prepared.

Because this is a deep, saturated color, surface prep and film build matter. Dark reds can make texture, sanding marks, and sheen changes more visible, and thin coverage may allow underlying color differences to show through, especially on light or uneven substrates. For exterior pieces, color shift and fading are more likely concerns than with quieter neutrals, so the full coating system should be chosen with exposure in mind.

Frequently Asked Questions About Match of Sherwin Williams™ 94950 *

Can I return a custom-made match of Sherwin Williams 94950 if it is not right?

Custom-made matches of Sherwin Williams 94950 should be ordered only after you confirm the target color, the MyPerfectColor product format, sheen, and quantity. These orders are made to your selected color reference, so they are not returnable or refundable. If the match will be used on a part that matters to the project, confirm the reference first so you avoid ordering the wrong item.

How long does MyPerfectColor spray paint matched to Sherwin Williams 94950 take to dry, recoat, and handle?

For Sherwin Williams 94950 in spray paint, dry-to-touch is typically within minutes. Plan to recoat in about one to two hours, and allow about two weeks for full cure before heavy handling or putting the part back into hard service.

How should I choose a sheen for Sherwin Williams 94950 in MyPerfectColor custom paint?

Confirm the finish before ordering MyPerfectColor spray paint or another format, because gloss level affects the final appearance of the match.
