Match of Sherwin Williams™ SW0099 Apothecary Blue *

Confirm SW0099 Apothecary Blue from a physical swatch or another known original Sherwin Williams color reference before ordering. MyPerfectColor makes a custom match to that color target, so the reference you approve is the key decision.

If you are matching an existing painted part, remember that age, gloss, and substrate can change how it looks. Verify the target color first, then choose the MyPerfectColor format that fits your project.

Because MyPerfectColor custom color matches are made to order, confirm the exact brand color reference, product type, sheen, and quantity before you buy. For SW0099 Apothecary Blue, that means deciding up front whether you need spray paint or another format and how much coverage your project requires.

Custom-made color orders are not returnable or refundable, so the safest approach is to verify every order detail before checkout. That helps avoid receiving the right color in the wrong format.

No. The same SW0099 Apothecary Blue color target can read differently depending on the finish you choose. More reflective finishes can make a match look brighter or deeper because they bounce more light, while lower sheen finishes usually look flatter and can make the color appear softer.

Choose the sheen for the item you are coating, not just the color name. The finish is part of the final appearance of the painted surface, so it should be confirmed before ordering a match of SW0099 Apothecary Blue.

Yes, but plastics and other low-energy surfaces vary a lot, so test on the actual material first. MyPerfectColor spray paint sticks well to most plastics, and using the MyPerfectColor primer for Acrylic Enamel can improve adhesion on smooth or hard-to-bond parts.

Clean the surface well and do a small test before coating the full item. That is especially important for vent covers, fixtures, hardware, and other plastic parts where the substrate can change the way SW0099 Apothecary Blue performs.

Apply SW0099 Apothecary Blue in light, even coats with consistent overlap rather than trying to cover in one heavy pass. Heavy coats can run, sag, or create uneven sheen, which can change how the matched color reads on the finished item.

Let each coat dry according to the product instructions before adding the next one. If the part is visible or has texture, do a test application first so you can confirm how the match of SW0099 Apothecary Blue looks on that specific surface.

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.

While MyPerfectColor can provide paint matched to the Sherwin Williams SW0099 Apothecary Blue, 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.
