Sherwin‑Williams color · mixed in Benjamin Moore
Rain SW6219
We keep the Sherwin-Williams formula for Rain on file, so we mix the exact color in Benjamin Moore at our North Scottsdale counter, in the line the surface needs. Same color, better paint. If you’d rather choose one of Benjamin Moore’s own colors, the five closest are below.
About this color
- Mid-tone
- Near-neutral
- Recommended surfaces
- — Exterior body where no city limit applies (too light for the Scottsdale and Paradise Valley limits)
- — Garage doors and exterior accents
- — Feature and accent walls
- — Cabinet bodies
Sheen: Matte or eggshell on walls; satin holds up better on garage doors and high-touch trim. Flat on exterior stucco.
SW6219 Rain is a mid-tone cool gray (LRV ≈ 49). Mid-tones are where most Arizona HOA bodies land, and where beige, tan, taupe and warm-gray exteriors blend with the Sonoran landscape. At LRV 49 it is above all three municipal overlay caps (Scottsdale ESL 35, Paradise Valley Hillside 38, Scottsdale Foothills 40), so it suits lots outside those overlays. Mid-tones run slightly warmer in west sun than lighter bodies, so we use Element Guard or Regal Select for any south or west elevation.

Which Benjamin Moore line?
Element Guard or Regal Select Exterior, in flat
On a stucco body we use flat, because sheen on a sunlit wall reads as glare. Element Guard is the one for a summer repaint: it forms a sound film in the heat and is rain-ready in about an hour. The rest of the year, Regal Select Exterior is our standard repaint. Bring the Benjamin Moore code from any of the five swatches above and we’ll mix that exact color at the counter.
