What color is Sherwin Williams Maxi Teal?
Sherwin Williams Maxi Teal SW 6769 is a deep, saturated blue-green with a distinctly cool cast. Its rich teal character reads bold on a full wall, while lower light can make it appear darker and more shadowed. In brighter daylight, the blue-green color becomes clearer and more energetic. Maxi Teal makes a strong choice for a powder room, dining room, built-in cabinetry, or a painted front door. Pair it with crisp white trim for contrast, pale oak or walnut for warmth, and brushed brass or black metal accents for a clean finish.

LRV of Maxi Teal
Maxi Teal has an LRV of 12.74% and refers to Medium Dark which means that this color reflects very little 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 12.74%, 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.
