Sherwin-Williams Debuts New Aerospace Coatings Calendar for 2026

Sherwin-Williams has officially released the design of the company’s 2026 Aerospace Coatings Calendar, which showcases the work of aircraft painters and designers.

The 2026 calendar features 13 unique paint designs used on modern and classic aircraft, highlighting the design and color palettes used in Sherwin-Williams MRO facilities.

“Our annual calendar program recognizes the outstanding work of aircraft designers and painters across the country that rely on Sherwin-Williams aerospace coatings in their MRO [maintenance, repair and operations] facilities,” says Julie Voisin, Market Segment Manager for Aerospace, OE Automotive Interiors & Commercial Vehicle Refinish at Sherwin-Williams.

Voisin continues, “This year’s competition was more competitive than ever, as the calendar program continues to grow with more worthy submissions than ever. It is truly amazing, both the design quality and amazing results our refinish teams are able to achieve.”

“We are looking forward to all those in the Aviation industry enjoying these flying works of art throughout the coming year,” adds Voisin.

An Embraer Phenom 300 painted by Corrigan Air Center, in Hondo, Texas, is featured as the calendar’s cover, which drew inspiration from a design by Scheme Designers in Cresskill, New Jersey.

The aircraft on the cover image features a finish in the color Sherwin-Williams 855 Series SKYscapes General Aviation Charcoal Grey Pearl SGP06802.

• SKYscapes GA Bright Red SG203181
