What color is Sherwin Williams Melón Meloso?
Sherwin Williams Melón Meloso SW 9007 is a light, warm peach with a clear apricot cast and a softly creamy appearance. Its #f2b88c color value gives it enough color presence to read as peach on a full wall, rather than fading into a near-neutral. Daylight can bring out its fresh, sunlit orange-pink notes, while warmer evening lighting may make it appear richer and more golden. Use it in a breakfast nook, powder room, child’s room, or kitchen accent area where a cheerful warm hue feels appropriate. Melón Meloso pairs well with warm white trim, pale sand tones, natural oak, woven cane, and muted terracotta accents.

LRV of Melón Meloso
Melón Meloso has an LRV of 55.31% and refers to Light colors that reflect most 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 55.31%, 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.
