Sherwin Williams

Down Pour

SW 6516

Down Pour (SW 6516) is a deep blue with green undertones that give it a teal-leaning quality, distinct from pure navy shades. With an LRV of 15, it absorbs significant light and works well in powder rooms, accent walls, or exterior doors where a saturated, cool statement is appropriate. The green cast becomes more apparent under warm lighting conditions.

It coordinates effectively with Rainwashed (SW 6211) for a lighter tonal step, while Alabaster (SW 7008) provides strong trim contrast. Anchors Aweigh (SW 9179) and Waterloo (SW 9141) deepen the palette, and Sea Salt (SW 6204) offers a soft complementary option.
