Match of Sherwin Williams™ SW1705 Wild Lime *

Confirm SW1705 Wild Lime from a physical Sherwin Williams swatch, an original brand sample, or another known color reference before you order. Screen images can shift depending on display settings, so they are not a reliable way to verify the target.

MyPerfectColor makes a custom-matched paint to the selected brand color reference, not Sherwin Williams' original paint. If the project depends on a very specific look, verify the exact SW1705 Wild Lime reference first, then choose the MyPerfectColor format that fits your application.

No. A match of Sherwin Williams SW1705 Wild Lime can read differently as the finish changes because matte, satin, semi-gloss, and gloss reflect light in different ways. The color match target stays the same, but the finished appearance on the part can change with sheen.

If you need a specific look for a fixture, trim piece, or removable part, choose the finish based on how much reflectivity and cleanability you want, then expect the same SW1705 Wild Lime match to appear slightly different across finishes.

A match of Sherwin Williams SW1705 Wild Lime can be ordered as MyPerfectColor custom spray paint for many plastic projects, but plastic types vary and adhesion can differ a lot. Test the actual part first if possible, especially on low-energy plastics where paint may not grip as well.

For better adhesion, use the MyPerfectColor primer for Acrylic Enamel before painting. That extra prep is especially important on plastic items such as covers, housings, trim pieces, or other molded parts where surface bonding is critical.

Choose the sheen based on how the part will be used and how much surface reflection you want. Lower sheens usually reduce glare and can hide small surface flaws better, while higher sheens are easier to clean and reflect more light.

For SW1705 Wild Lime, the sheen also affects how the color reads on the finished object. If you are matching a removable part, fixture, or accessory, pick the sheen that best fits the surface conditions and the cleaning needs of that item.

Before applying SW1705 Wild Lime, clean the metal or existing coating well, remove dust and contamination, and scuff the surface if needed so the new coating can bond properly. Rust, loose paint, and glossy or uneven old coatings can all affect the final result.

The condition of the base surface can change how SW1705 Wild Lime looks after it dries, even when the color match itself is correct. If the item has an older coating, test a small area first and make sure the surface is sound before ordering a full custom match for the project.

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.

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 SW1705 Wild Lime, 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.
