What color is Sherwin Williams Blue Cruise?
Sherwin Williams Blue Cruise SW 7606 is a medium, muted blue with a noticeable gray cast that keeps it from reading overly bright. The color carries a soft blue-green lean, especially in clear daylight, while lower light can bring out its more subdued, slate-like side. It has enough depth for a bedroom, home office, or powder room without making the walls feel heavy. Pair Blue Cruise with crisp white trim, pale oak, weathered wood, brushed nickel, or warm off-white textiles for a grounded contrast. It also makes a composed choice for built-in shelving or exterior shutters against a light neutral facade.

LRV of Blue Cruise
Blue Cruise has an LRV of 25.8% and refers to Medium colors that reflect a lot of light. Why LRV is important?
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 25.8%, 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.
