What color is Sherwin Williams Daredevil?
Sherwin Williams Daredevil SW 6882 is a saturated red-orange with a clear warm, earthy pull. Its depth keeps it from reading like a bright traffic-cone orange, while the red base gives it a lively, fired-clay character. In strong daylight, Daredevil can appear clearer and more energetic; lower or warmer light tends to bring out its deeper rust-red side. It makes a confident choice for a dining room, powder room, painted front door, or a single accent wall, and it can also give cabinetry a bold focal-point role. Pair it with warm white, deep brown wood, aged brass, charcoal, or muted olive green for a grounded contrast.

LRV of Daredevil
Daredevil has an LRV of 19.14% 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 19.14%, 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.
