What color is Sherwin Williams Rayo de Sol?
Sherwin Williams Rayo de Sol SW 9020 is a clear, sunlit golden yellow with a warm orange-leaning cast. Its #f4c454 color value gives it a bright, mid-light depth that reads cheerful without looking neon. Rayo de Sol can bring noticeable color to a breakfast nook, playroom, mudroom, or a single accent wall, while also making a lively choice for painted furniture or a front door. Pair it with creamy whites, warm wood, terracotta, or deep blue accents to give the yellow a grounded contrast. In strong daylight, this shade is likely to appear especially clear and golden, while lower light can make its warmth feel richer.
LRV of Rayo de Sol
Rayo de Sol has an LRV of 59.51% 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 59.51%, 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.
