Match of Sherwin Williams™ SW6194 Basil *

For MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to SW6194 Basil, a typical can covers about 20 square feet with one coat. Actual coverage depends on the surface size, texture, hiding power, application method, and how many coats you need.

Not always. Once a match of SW6194 Basil is applied, placement, lighting, sheen, and nearby surfaces can all change how the color reads on the finished item.

This is normal, especially if the painted part will sit next to an existing surface or be viewed in different light than the original swatch.

While MyPerfectColor can provide paint matched to the Sherwin Williams SW6194 Basil, 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.
