What color is Sherwin Williams Cooled Blue?
Sherwin Williams Cooled Blue SW 6759 is a medium-light blue-green with a clear teal cast and a gently softened, not overly bright finish. Its mix of blue and green keeps it cool in character, though the green presence prevents it from reading icy or stark. In daylight, Cooled Blue can show a cleaner aqua-blue look, while warmer indoor lighting may bring forward its greener side. It has enough color for a powder room, laundry room, or painted built-in, but it can also cover bedroom walls without feeling heavy. Pair it with crisp white trim, pale oak, woven natural fibers, or charcoal accents for contrast.

LRV of Cooled Blue
Cooled Blue has an LRV of 41.43% and refers to Light Medium colors that reflect half of the incident 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 41.43%, 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.
