Samplize is a company that sells adhesive-backed paint samples for Sherwin Williams and other brands. Back in July 2021, I noted their top sellers in an earlier blog post, so it was very much time to check back in and compare today’s best sellers to the older best sellers! So that’s what I’m doing here. In the chart below I am listing the top 50 Sherwin Williams colors according to Samplize as of February 2024. And then I am showing how many spots their rankings have moved between July 2021 and February 2024.
Some general observations:
- The top 5 in the list have held pretty steady even though most of the list has changed significantly.
- The biggest upward movers have been warmer whites, warmer neutrals, and greens.
- The biggest downward movers have been grays, and that includes most of the colors that were on the July 2021 list but not on this one.
