What color is Sherwin Williams Tidewater?
Sherwin Williams Tidewater SW 6477 is a light, muted blue-green with a soft gray cast that keeps it from feeling overly pastel. Its cool-leaning appearance can read a little bluer in crisp daylight, while warm indoor bulbs tend to bring out its gentle green side. Tidewater is well suited to bedroom, bathroom, or laundry room walls where a pale wash of color is wanted without strong contrast. Pair it with clean white trim, pale oak, brushed nickel, and sandy beige textiles for a restrained, airy palette. It can also give painted cabinetry a quiet color note in a kitchen with light counters and natural wood details.

LRV of Tidewater
Tidewater has an LRV of 65% 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 65%, 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.
