What color is Sherwin Williams Web Gray?
Sherwin Williams Web Gray SW 7075 is a deep, low-saturation gray with a distinctly cool, blue-leaning cast. Its near-neutral character keeps it grounded, while the slight blue influence becomes more noticeable in clear daylight and under cooler LED lighting. In dimmer or warmer rooms, Web Gray can read closer to a softened charcoal gray. It has enough depth for exterior siding, a front door, built-in cabinetry, or an accent wall behind light furnishings. Pair it with crisp white trim, pale oak, brushed nickel, concrete, or lighter gray textiles to emphasize its clean, architectural look.

LRV of Web Gray
Web Gray has an LRV of 13.12% and refers to Medium Dark which means that this color reflects very little 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 13.12%, 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.
