What color is Sherwin Williams Reflecting Pool?
Sherwin Williams Reflecting Pool SW 6486 is a softened blue-green with a noticeable gray cast that keeps it from reading overly bright. Its medium-light depth gives walls clear color presence while maintaining an airy, water-inspired look. In cooler daylight, Reflecting Pool can appear bluer and crisper; warmer evening lighting tends to bring forward its muted green-teal side. It suits bathrooms, bedrooms, and laundry rooms, and can also make a distinctive choice for painted cabinetry or a front door. Pair it with warm white trim, pale oak, woven natural fibers, and brushed nickel or matte black hardware for a grounded finish.

LRV of Reflecting Pool
Reflecting Pool has an LRV of 38.75% and refers to Medium colors that reflect a lot of 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 38.75%, 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.
