What color is Sherwin Williams Rain?
Sherwin Williams Rain SW 6219 is a muted blue-green with enough gray to keep it from reading overly beachy or bright. It can look like a rain-dampened sea glass shade: soft teal in clear daylight, then more blue-gray in a north-facing room or under cooler bulbs. On walls, it has enough presence for a bedroom, bathroom, laundry room, or home office without making the room feel dark. Pair it with warm white trim, pale oak, natural linen, and honed stone to bring out its understated green undertone. Brass fixtures and walnut furniture give Rain a warmer, more grounded contrast, while deep navy or dark green can make the color feel more tailored.

What are Sherwin Williams Rain undertones?
Rain reads as a mid-light, very muted blue-green with low saturation and a soft gray cast. Its visible color family leans teal, so it can look like a blue that carries a slight green bias rather than a clear, crisp blue. Sherwin-Williams classifies Rain as a blue paint color, which fits its overall blue-based appearance even though the supplied digital sample also shows that subtle blue-green direction. Warm artificial light may bring out more of its softened green-gray side, while cool daylight can make its blue-teal character look a little clearer.

Colors that go with Sherwin Williams Rain:
Monochromatic color scheme
This scheme consists of various shades, tints, and tones of a single color. While it offers a perfect combination of hues, without accent décor it may become monotonous.
Lighter shades
Darker shades
Complementary color scheme
This color scheme is a combination of two shades that are opposite each other on the color wheel. The high contrast between these colors creates a vibrant and dynamic visual effect. For the color Rain with a green hue, complementary colors are those with a red hue close to 3, such as Sherwin Williams Mauve Tinge and Studio Mauve.
LRV of Rain
Rain has an LRV of 55% 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%, 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.
