What color is Sherwin Williams Topsail?
Sherwin Williams Topsail SW 6217 is a very light, muted blue-green gray with a soft, cool cast. Its low saturation keeps it from reading as overtly coastal or colorful; on most walls, it appears closer to a pale silvery gray with a gentle hint of sea-glass green. Bright daylight brings out its blue-green undertone, while warmer evening lighting can make it look quieter and more neutral. Topsail is well suited to bedrooms, bathrooms, laundry rooms, or airy living spaces where a nearly neutral wall color is wanted with more character than plain gray. Pair it with crisp white trim, pale oak, brushed nickel, linen upholstery, and charcoal or deep navy accents for definition.

LRV of Topsail
Topsail has an LRV of 74.9% and refers to Off‑White 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 74.9%, 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.
