What color is Sherwin Williams Rainwashed?
Sherwin Williams Rainwashed SW 6211 is a light, muted green-gray with a soft blue cast that keeps it from reading overly earthy. Its pale value gives walls an airy look, while the low saturation makes the color feel quiet rather than pastel. In cooler daylight, Rainwashed can lean more blue-gray; warmer artificial light tends to bring forward its gentle green side. It suits bathrooms, bedrooms, laundry rooms, and airy living areas, especially alongside white trim, pale oak, brushed nickel, and linen-textured fabrics. For contrast, pair this shade with deeper charcoal, navy, or weathered wood accents.
LRV of Rainwashed
Rainwashed has an LRV of 59.05% 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 59.05%, 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.
