What color is Sherwin Williams Magnetic Gray?
Sherwin Williams Magnetic Gray SW 7058 is a light, softened gray with a subtle green cast that keeps it from reading flat or icy. Its medium-light value gives walls a quiet, airy presence while still providing more definition than an off-white. In daylight, the muted green undertone may be more noticeable, while warmer artificial lighting can make the shade appear slightly softer and more neutral. Magnetic Gray suits bedrooms, living rooms, and kitchens, especially alongside warm white trim, natural oak, linen upholstery, and brushed nickel. Use it on full walls or cabinetry when you want a gentle gray that has a touch more character than a standard cool neutral.
LRV of Magnetic Gray
Magnetic Gray has an LRV of 45.81% and refers to Light Medium colors that reflect half of the incident 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 45.81%, 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.
