What color is Sherwin Williams Winsome Grey?
Sherwin Williams Winsome Grey SW 9624 is a very light gray with a subtle cool cast and a barely perceptible green tint. Its high brightness keeps walls looking open and clean rather than noticeably gray, especially in rooms with generous daylight. In warmer artificial light, this shade may appear softer and closer to an off-white, while cooler light can bring out its muted gray-green note. Use it on full walls in bedrooms, bathrooms, or hallways where a quiet, low-contrast backdrop is wanted. Natural oak, pale stone, brushed nickel, charcoal accents, and soft white trim are all fitting companions for Winsome Grey.

LRV of Winsome Grey
Winsome Grey has an LRV of 80.99% 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 80.99%, 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.
