Match of Sherwin Williams™ SW2841 Weathered Shingle *

MyPerfectColor makes a match of SW2841 Weathered Shingle based on the selected brand color reference, so the safest step is to confirm the target from a physical Sherwin Williams swatch or another known existing reference before you order. Do not rely on a screen image alone, since monitors can shift the appearance of the color. If you are matching an already painted item, compare it to the original color reference as closely as possible before placing the order.

Estimate by the total surface area you need to cover and then add allowance for texture, porosity, hiding power, application method, and whether you need more than one coat. A typical can of spray paint covers about 20 square feet with one coat. Other MyPerfectColor paints typically cover between 400 and 600 square feet, but real coverage can be lower on rough surfaces or when stronger hiding is needed. For SW2841 Weathered Shingle, plan extra material if you are coating dark, uneven, or highly textured substrates.

Safety Data Sheets are tied to the specific MyPerfectColor product or chemistry you order, not to the SW2841 Weathered Shingle color name by itself. Check the SDS for the exact MyPerfectColor paint format you plan to use, such as spray paint, and review that sheet before application. MyPerfectColor Safety Data Sheets can be found on the MyPerfectColor Safety Data Sheets page.

Use light, even passes and build the color with several thin coats instead of one heavy coat. Keep the can moving, overlap passes slightly, and start and stop the spray off the part so you do not leave heavy spots at the edges. Allow each coat to flash and dry according to the can directions before applying the next coat. Heavy application can cause runs, uneven sheen, or a muddy-looking build, especially on a match of SW2841 Weathered Shingle.

MyPerfectColor spray paint can work on many plastics, but plastics vary a lot, so test the actual part first. Clean the surface well and use the MyPerfectColor primer to improve adhesion when the substrate is difficult or low energy. If the item is a vent, cover, bracket, or other plastic part, a test spray on the real material is the best way to confirm adhesion and appearance before you paint the full piece.

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 SW2841 Weathered Shingle, 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.
