What color is Sherwin Williams Hulett Ore?

Sherwin Williams Hulett Ore SW 9574 is a muted, medium-depth gray with a faint warm cast that keeps it from reading cold or blue. Its low-saturation mix of gray, brown, and soft charcoal makes it feel grounded rather than stark. In bright daylight, Hulett Ore can look like a straightforward weathered gray, while warm evening lighting draws out its subtle taupe undertone. It has enough depth for a study, dining room, or exterior trim, and it can also give cabinetry a quiet, matte-looking presence. Pair it with off-white walls, natural oak, aged brass, black metal, or stone finishes with warm gray variation.

Light Reflectance Value scale illustration

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 16.07%, 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.
