Match of Sherwin Williams™ SW1478 Tranquility *

The color reference stays SW1478 Tranquility, but the finish can change how it reads after application. Matte, satin, and gloss reflect light differently, so the same matched color can look flatter or deeper depending on sheen.

If you are coating a part that will sit next to an existing painted surface, choose the finish that is closest to that surface. If you are painting the whole item, pick the finish based on the look and wear needs of that item, not just the color code.

For MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to SW1478 Tranquility, it is typically dry to the touch within minutes, can usually be recoated in about 1 to 2 hours, and reaches full cure in about 2 weeks. Those are separate milestones, so dry to the touch does not mean ready for full handling.

If you are coating trim pieces, hardware, vents, or other parts that must be put back in service quickly, plan for the recoat window and the full cure time before heavy use, stacking, or cleaning.

Choose the finish based on how the item will be used and how you want the surface to perform. Lower sheen finishes usually hide minor surface flaws better, while higher sheen finishes reflect more light and are generally easier to wipe clean.

Because finish changes how SW1478 Tranquility reads, the best choice for a mailbox, vent cover, speaker grille, or similar part is the one that matches the surface around it and fits the cleaning or wear needs of the item. The color match is the same reference, but the finish affects the final appearance.

MyPerfectColor spray paint matched to SW1478 Tranquility can work on many plastics, but plastic types vary a lot, so testing on the actual part is important. Some plastics also need better prep or a primer to improve adhesion.

For the best chance of success, clean the surface well, follow the prep steps for the specific material, and consider using the MyPerfectColor primer when the substrate is difficult or the part will be handled often. This matters for items like PVC pipe, vents, covers, and similar components.

The SDS is tied to the MyPerfectColor paint product and chemistry, not to the SW1478 Tranquility color name by itself. That means you should look for the SDS for the specific MyPerfectColor product you are ordering.

MyPerfectColor Safety Data Sheets are listed on the company's SDS page. If you are checking compliance or handling information before ordering, use the SDS for the exact product format you plan to buy, such as spray paint or another MyPerfectColor paint format matched to SW1478 Tranquility.

While MyPerfectColor can provide paint matched to the Sherwin Williams SW1478 Tranquility, 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.
