What color is Sherwin Williams Cadet?
Sherwin Williams Cadet SW 9143 is a muted, medium-light blue-gray with a lightly weathered appearance. Its cool cast is softened by a trace of gray-green, keeping it from reading as overly blue. In bright natural light, Cadet can feel airy and silvery, while lower or warmer light brings out its grounded gray side. It is well suited to bedroom and bathroom walls, or to cabinetry paired with soft white tile, pale oak, brushed nickel, and charcoal details. For contrast, use this shade alongside warm off-whites, natural linen, or deeper navy-gray accents.

LRV of Cadet
Cadet has an LRV of 31.22% 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 31.22%, 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.
