Sherwin Williams

Acanthus

SW 0029

Yellow Rain Coat by Benjamin Moore is a classic bright yellow with a hex value of #FFD867 and an LRV of 68.87, meaning it reflects a substantial portion of light and reads as noticeably luminous on surfaces. Its undertones lean warm and clean, with minimal green or orange pull, keeping the hue squarely in mid-yellow territory. This saturation level makes it effective for lifting darker or north-facing rooms.

It pairs naturally with White Dove or Gray Owl to temper its brightness, Hale Navy for strong tonal contrast, and Fernwood Green or Newburyport Blue for adjacent-palette coordination.
