Match of Sherwin Williams™ SW1209 Seahawk *

Confirm SW1209 Seahawk from a physical Sherwin Williams swatch or another known existing color reference, not from a screen image alone. MyPerfectColor matches to the brand color reference, so verifying the target color first helps avoid ordering the wrong match.

If you already have the original color reference for SW1209 Seahawk, use that as the basis for the order. The code identifies the color target, but it does not define sheen, product type, or how an existing painted surface will look after a new coating is applied.

Choose the sheen based on how the item will be used and cleaned, because sheen affects durability, reflectivity, and the way SW1209 Seahawk reads after it is applied. A lower sheen usually hides surface variation better, while a higher sheen is typically easier to wipe down and can make the color look more reflective.

If you need SW1209 Seahawk on trim, fixtures, hardware, or other handled parts, pick the finish that fits the use rather than the color name alone. The same color matched in different sheens can look noticeably different on the finished surface.

Coverage depends on the surface size, texture, preparation, application method, and how many coats SW1209 Seahawk needs for even coverage. A typical can of spray paint covers about 20 square feet with one coat, while other paints typically cover between 400 and 600 square feet.

If the surface is rough, porous, or a difficult color to cover, plan for extra material. For small parts such as vents, hardware, fixtures, or accessories, it is usually better to estimate conservatively so you do not run short before the project is finished.

No. Once SW1209 Seahawk is applied, lighting, placement, sheen, and nearby surfaces can all change how the color reads. The same matched paint can look different on a wall, a removable part, or a fixture depending on the surrounding materials and the light hitting it.

If SW1209 Seahawk will sit right next to an existing painted surface, or if the project is high visibility, use caution because small differences in aging, texture, and gloss may be more noticeable after installation.

The SDS is tied to the MyPerfectColor product and chemistry, not to the SW1209 Seahawk color name alone. You can find MyPerfectColor Safety Data Sheets here: Safety Data Sheets.

If you need the SDS for a specific MyPerfectColor format matched to SW1209 Seahawk, check the product information for that item rather than relying on the color reference by itself.

MyPerfectColor has an original sample of the Sherwin Williams SW1209 Seahawk in its color archive. This enables us to make paint and verify that it matches the original.

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 SW1209 Seahawk, 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.
