What color is Sherwin Williams Water Squirt?
Sherwin Williams Water Squirt SW 7132 is a very light, softly muted aqua with a cool blue-green cast. Its high brightness keeps it airy on walls, while the low saturation prevents it from reading like a strong pastel. In daylight, Water Squirt can appear clean and lightly watery; under warmer bulbs, its green notes may become a little more noticeable. It suits bathrooms, laundry rooms, sunrooms, and bedrooms where a pale wash of color is wanted without darkening the room. Pair it with crisp white trim, pale oak, brushed nickel, soft gray textiles, or deeper blue-green accents for added definition.

LRV of Water Squirt
Water Squirt has an LRV of 79.85% 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 79.85%, 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.
