What color is Sherwin Williams Dewy?
Sherwin Williams Dewy SW 6469 is a pale, low-saturation green with a noticeable gray cast that keeps it soft rather than minty. Its light value gives walls an airy look, while the green remains visible enough to add more character than a standard off-white. In cool daylight, Dewy can read as a quiet gray-green; warmer bulbs tend to draw out its gentle leafy side. It is especially well suited to bedrooms, bathrooms, laundry rooms, and light-filled kitchens. Pair it with warm white trim, natural oak, pale stone, brushed nickel, or muted charcoal accents for a grounded, understated palette.
LRV of Dewy
Dewy has an LRV of 72.94% and refers to Off‑White 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 72.94%, 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.
