What color is Sherwin Williams Sea Salt?
Sherwin Williams Sea Salt SW 6204 is a soft, muted blue-green with a noticeable gray cast that keeps it from reading too beachy or bright. In daylight, it often shifts between pale sage and weathered aqua, while north-facing rooms can pull out more of its cool gray side. Warm lamps and evening sun make the green undertone feel gentler and slightly more grounded. It suits bedrooms, bathrooms, laundry rooms, and kitchen cabinetry, especially alongside warm white trim, pale oak, honed stone, and natural linen. Sea Salt also has enough gray to hold its own next to darker navy accents, aged brass, or deep green plants.

LRV of Sea Salt
Sea Salt has an LRV of 63% 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 63%, 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.
