What color is Sherwin Williams Afterglow?

Sherwin Williams Afterglow SW 6667 is a light, warm yellow-orange with a softly peachy cast. Its high brightness keeps the color airy on broad walls, while the golden undertone gives it more presence than a standard cream. In direct daylight, Afterglow can read as a clear, sun-warmed buff; under warm bulbs, its peach and honey notes become more noticeable. It suits kitchens, breakfast areas, hallways, and children’s rooms where a pale but cheerful wall color is wanted. Pair it with crisp white trim, natural oak, woven cane, terracotta, or muted olive accents for an earthy, grounded contrast.

Light Reflectance Value scale illustration

Light Reflectance Value measures the amount of visible and usable light that reflects from a painted surface.
Simply put, the higher the LRV of a paint color, the brighter the room you will get.
The scale goes from 0% (absolute black, absorbing all light) to 100% (pure white, reflecting all light).

Act like a pro: When choosing paint with an LRV of 65.17%, pay attention to your bulbs' brightness. Light brightness is measured in lumens. The lower the paint's LRV, the higher lumen level you need. Every square foot of room needs at least 40 lumens. That means for a 200 ft2 living room you'll need about 8000 lumens of light – e.g., eight 1000 lm bulbs.
