What color is Sherwin Williams Quench Blue?
Sherwin Williams Quench Blue SW 6785 is a light, cool blue with a noticeable aqua cast that keeps it from reading icy or gray. Its high brightness gives walls an airy look, while the soft blue-green undertone adds a clean, water-inspired note. In sunny rooms, Quench Blue can appear brighter and a touch more turquoise; under lower or warmer lighting, it settles into a gentler pale blue. It suits bathrooms, bedrooms, laundry rooms, and airy kitchen walls, especially alongside crisp white trim. Pair it with pale oak, light maple, brushed nickel, white tile, or warm sand-colored textiles to give the cool color some contrast.

LRV of Quench Blue
Quench Blue has an LRV of 68.61% 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 68.61%, 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.
