Sherwin Williams

Web Gray

SW 7075

Web Gray is a deep, cool-toned charcoal from Sherwin-Williams with blue undertones and low saturation. Its hex value is #616669 and it carries a Light Reflectance Value of 13, meaning it absorbs the majority of light and reads as a dark neutral. The blue undertone distinguishes it from warmer charcoals, giving it a cooler cast that is particularly noticeable when placed beside warm-toned surfaces.

It functions well on accent walls, exterior trim, cabinetry, and front doors. Sherwin-Williams Extra White and Pure White create sharp contrast, while Misty and Accessible Beige offer softer, complementary coordination.
