What color is Sherwin Williams Flyway?
Sherwin Williams Flyway SW 6794 is a clear, mid-tone blue with a noticeable cyan cast, based on its #5db3d4 color value. It reads cool and bright without becoming overly pale, giving walls a clean splash of color that still has enough depth to hold its own. In strong daylight, Flyway can appear especially crisp and airy, while lower or warmer lighting may bring out a slightly softer blue-green edge. Use it on a bathroom wall, a painted interior door, or built-in shelving where a fresh blue accent is wanted. White trim keeps the look sharp, while light oak, pale maple, brushed nickel, and warm sandy neutrals provide grounded contrast.
LRV of Flyway
Flyway has an LRV of 39.28% and refers to Medium 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 39.28%, 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.
