Electric Lime

Sherwin-Williams Electric Lime (6921) carries the measured structure of its color data and the less predictable beauty of paint in a finished space. It appears in High Voltage, placing it within several distinct decorating stories rather than a single fixed look. Treat the digital swatch as an opening note, then watch a physical sample from morning light through evening lamps.
