About White Duck
White Duck LRV and undertone
Sherwin-Williams White Duck (SW 7010) has an LRV of 74, placing it in the light range. Light Reflectance Value measures how much visible light a color reflects, from 0 to 100. At 74, White Duck reflects a substantial amount of light without reaching the highest reflectance levels associated with brighter whites. Its color family is White, and its calculated undertone is warm yellow. That warmth can become more apparent beside cooler whites or under different lighting conditions. Therefore, compare it with nearby finishes rather than judging the paint in isolation.
Natural light changes throughout the day. North-facing rooms typically receive cooler daylight, while south-facing rooms generally receive warmer, more direct light. These shifts can influence how a warm white appears on a large wall. Test a sample beside flooring, counters, and trim. A brighter white trim may create a noticeable boundary, whereas a closely matched white can reduce the apparent contrast. Sheen also affects reflected light, so compare samples using the finish you plan to apply.
