What color is Sherwin Williams Mauve Tinge?
Sherwin Williams Mauve Tinge SW 6280 is a very light, muted off-white with a faint rosy-gray cast. Its #e7e1e1 value gives it a soft, low-saturation appearance rather than a clearly pink wall color. In daylight, it can read as a pale warm gray with just enough blush to keep it from feeling stark; under warmer bulbs, the pinkish note may become more noticeable. Mauve Tinge suits bedrooms, dressing areas, and living-room walls where a nearly neutral backdrop is preferred. Pair it with soft white trim, pale oak, linen upholstery, brushed nickel, or charcoal accents for contrast.

LRV of Mauve Tinge
Mauve Tinge has an LRV of 76.21% 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 76.21%, 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.
