Match of Ralph Lauren™ SS02 Water Lily *

Yes. If you need a match of SS02 Water Lily by Ralph Lauren for a small, awkward, or removable item, MyPerfectColor custom spray paint is a practical choice. It is often used on trim details, vents, pipes, railings, hardware, fixtures, and accessories where brushing would be inefficient or leave visible brush marks.

Clean the surface first, then remove rust, loose coating, oil, dust, and other contamination before applying a match of SS02 Water Lily. If the old coating is sound but glossy, scuffing helps the new coating hold better. The condition of the existing surface, along with its gloss and texture, can affect how the finished color looks.

If the new coating will sit next to an older painted area, plan for some visual difference because aging and surface condition can change the final appearance even when the color match itself is correct.

For a match of SS02 Water Lily in spray paint, dry-to-touch is typically within minutes. Recoat time is usually about 1 to 2 hours, and full cure takes about 2 weeks. Those are different stages, so a piece may feel dry before it is ready for normal handling or full service.

If the item will be moved, installed, or used soon after painting, allow enough time for the coating to set before stressing the finish.

The sheen you choose changes how a match of SS02 Water Lily will look and perform. Lower sheens reduce reflection and can hide texture or small surface flaws better, while higher sheens are easier to wipe clean but can make defects and substrate differences more noticeable.

Pick the sheen based on how the part will be used and how much cleanup, durability, and reflectivity you want on the finished item.

Not always. Even when the color match is correct, SS02 Water Lily can read differently after application because of lighting, sheen, placement, nearby colors, and surface texture. A color that looks right on a sample or in one room can appear slightly different once it is on the finished part.

This is especially important if the painted item will sit right beside an existing coated surface or be seen under strong natural or artificial light.

While we can provide Ralph Lauren SS02 Water Lily in paint, we don't provide any crossover information. We've found that every paint company offers its own unique selection of colors and rarely does a color have an exact equivalent in another brand.

However, under the color image on a color page there is a link that says "Explore Colors". Clicking this link displays colors with similar values and you can look for any colors from the brand 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.
