What color is Sherwin Williams Stay in Lime?

Sherwin Williams Stay in Lime SW 9032 is a muted yellow-green with an earthy, olive-leaning cast rather than a sharp citrus brightness. Its medium-light depth gives walls noticeable color while keeping the overall effect grounded and soft. In bright daylight, the green reads clearer and fresher; under warm lamps, its golden undertone becomes more apparent. Stay in Lime suits a kitchen, mudroom, breakfast nook, or painted cabinet where a natural-looking green can add character. Pair it with warm white trim, honey-toned wood, woven natural fibers, or deep charcoal accents for contrast.

Light Reflectance Value scale illustration

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 37.53%, 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.
