Match of Sherwin Williams™ 39688 *

The Safety Data Sheet is tied to the MyPerfectColor product and chemistry, not to the Sherwin Williams 39688 color name by itself. If you need the SDS for the MyPerfectColor paint matched to 39688, use the MyPerfectColor Safety Data Sheets page for that product: https://www.myperfectcolor.com/Safety-Data-Sheets/33970.htm.

If you are ordering a different MyPerfectColor format matched to 39688, make sure you are checking the SDS for the exact product you plan to use.

Finish affects how Sherwin Williams 39688 reflects light, so the same color can look different in matte, satin, semi-gloss, or gloss. A smoother, shinier finish usually reads brighter and more reflective, while a flatter finish reduces reflection and can make the color appear less intense.

If you are matching a part that sits next to an existing painted surface, the finish matters as much as the color code. To get the best result, choose the MyPerfectColor finish that is closest to the surrounding item or the look you need on the finished part.

Yes. A match of Sherwin Williams 39688 can be ordered as MyPerfectColor custom spray paint for items such as switch covers, knobs, vents, speaker grilles, brackets, trim pieces, and similar parts where a smooth sprayed finish is practical.

For small parts, the key is proper prep and light, even coats so the paint lays down uniformly. If the part will be handled often, let it dry and cure fully before reassembly or use.

Plastics vary a lot, so Sherwin Williams 39688 may need different prep depending on the exact material. MyPerfectColor spray paint works well on many plastics, but it is smart to test on the actual part before finishing the whole item.

Using the MyPerfectColor primer for Acrylic Enamel can help improve adhesion on difficult plastic surfaces: https://www.myperfectcolor.com/en/product/995031-Primer-for-Acrylic-Enamel/. Clean the part first, and if the plastic is slick or low-energy, primer and a test spot are especially important.

Before applying Sherwin Williams 39688, clean the metal thoroughly so oil, dust, and contamination do not interfere with adhesion. If there is rust, loose paint, or a failing coating, remove it first. If the surface is glossy or in good condition, light scuffing usually helps the new paint bond better.

The condition of the old coating can affect how the finished color looks, including gloss and texture. If the item already has a coating and you are trying to match it closely, test a small area first so you can confirm both adhesion and appearance.

MyPerfectColor has an original sample of the Sherwin Williams 39688 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. Learn more about our color matching accuracy. 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 39688, 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.
