What color is Sherwin Williams Spa?
Sherwin Williams Spa SW 6765 is a light blue-green with a clear aqua cast and a soft, airy level of saturation. Its cool character is noticeable, though the pale value keeps it from feeling sharp or overly icy on broad walls. In daylight, Spa reads as a clean watery turquoise, while warmer artificial lighting can bring out a slightly gentler mint-blue appearance. It suits bathrooms, laundry rooms, sunrooms, and bedrooms, especially alongside crisp white trim, pale oak, light stone, or brushed nickel. Use this shade on full walls for an open look or on a vanity, built-in, or interior door for a fresh hit of color.

LRV of Spa
Spa has an LRV of 64.48% 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 64.48%, 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.
