What color is Sherwin Williams Cruising?
Sherwin Williams Cruising SW 6782 is a saturated blue-green with a clear teal cast and a medium-dark visual weight. Its vivid color presence makes it especially effective on a front door, built-in cabinetry, or a single accent wall rather than throughout a small room. In bright daylight, Cruising reads cleaner and bluer, while lower or warmer lighting can bring out more of its green-teal side. Pair it with crisp white trim, pale gray walls, natural oak, or light woven textures to give the color room to stand out. Matte black hardware and warm brass both provide a sharp, intentional contrast against this shade.

LRV of Cruising
Cruising has an LRV of 18.54% and refers to Medium Dark which means that this color reflects very little 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 18.54%, 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.
