What color is Sherwin Williams Fleeting Green?
Sherwin Williams Fleeting Green SW 6455 is a very light, muted green with a noticeable gray cast that keeps it soft rather than leafy or bright. Its pale value gives walls an airy look, while the restrained green undertone adds more character than a standard off-white. In daylight, Fleeting Green can read as a clean green-gray; under warmer lamps, it may appear quieter and closer to a softened neutral. It suits bedrooms, bathrooms, and light-filled living areas, especially alongside warm white trim, pale oak, brushed nickel, and natural linen. For contrast, pair this shade with charcoal, deep olive, or a warm medium wood rather than another similarly pale gray.

LRV of Fleeting Green
Fleeting Green has an LRV of 73.96% 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 73.96%, 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.
