Paint Colour Review: Sherwin Williams Repose Gray UPDATED SW 7015

[@dddddadadad1796]

I just have to say, your voice alone made me click "like" for the video. You have such a calm, soothing, pleasing voice, that it immediately reduced the stress I was feeling with picking a paint color!

[@KylieMInteriorsPaint]

Wow, thank you! That's so nice to hear as I know some people are so sensitive - thank you...

[@vassybaby16]

Depending on the light in my house repose grey either looks like a true grey or a purple blue. It’s very pretty just odd how lighting changes it so dramatically

[@stump026]

@Kylie M Interiors....what is the color on your wall behind you (where the light switch is)?

[@DebbiesWorld]

I think it’s colonnade gray sherwin Williams.

[@lucasluttrell1642]

I enjoyed this post! Your choices for repose gray helped me begin to decide what to do with my office space. Great work, Kylie! 😃

Hi, Kiley. You have been a life saver in ny quest for my home paint colors! I am learning so much! I love LFG and Repose Gray and I am finding myself in a dilemma! My trim is Shoji White (it’s like that all over the house, we bought it like that), and I really wanted a white that served as neutral color in my open floor plan. So we ended painting shoji in our hallways. The painter still needs to paint the living room/ kitchen ( both in south facing area). And I wonder if I: 1. should use either Repose Gray or LFG in these 2 areas, that connects with the hallway, or just go with Shoji also for the living/ kitchen area? If I go with Shoji, which color would look better as a accent wall? LFG or Repose? Thanks!!!

We had this in our last house. Our builder put snowbound for the trim and doors. It made the repose look very muddy. And it made the snowbound always look dirty.

[@KylieMInteriorsPaint]

Snowbound is a TOUGH ONE as it does have that bit more warmth to it whereas Repose has more gray to it, I'm sorry you don't love it! Oh wait, you've moved...PHEW!

[@angelique1241]

Thank you very much !! So helpful! Very clear, especially because you show the colors together. Thank You!!

[@KylieMInteriorsPaint]

Well, thank you Angelique, I appreciate that!

Which gray goes well with white duck SW for south Wes room for kitchen cabinet? Especially if the cabinet direction is on north west and the wall is white duck

[@dolphyy3122]

What color is that wall behind you where the switch is at

[@DarthakaLordvader]

I was wondering the same

[@bellafacefx9535]

I want to know her wall color! It’s perfect!

[@kiwimpey9691]

I would love to know too!

[@Donna-vh5ym]

Does anyone here have Repose Gray as their exterior color???

[@angelamae5518]

Hi Kylie. I used Repose White on a North facing wall and I can definitely see some blue in it. I was going to use Pure White for the trim but am now thinking about the High Reflective White if it's going to help bring out the warmth in Repose. If it's not going to really help then I'll probably stick with Pure White as I was planning on using that in the adjoining hall trim with Alabaster walls. What are your thoughts?

[@kennethabshire9669]

What color trim did you go with

[@angelamae5518]

@@kennethabshire9669 I went with Pure White.

[@faisal-ca]

I painted one wall with Repo Gray and found it had very strong blue undertone so it failed the trial. I am planning on trying Mindful Gray soon. Just my preference , nothing wrong with the paint itself.

[@KylieMInteriorsPaint]

You know, it does that once in a while and it's usually the EXPOSURE of the room (often north-facing) if that helps!

[@rdlineone]

Thanks for this video Kylie. We have a North facing home where the body of the house, as well as the board and batten are SW Extra White and the wood fascia, garage door, shutters and front door is SW Caviar Black. We are thinking about painting the board and batten some type of gray to make it pop (and really because our neighbors decided to paint their house our same exact color). What SW gray would you recommend to paint the board and batten? We were thinking Repose Gray initially, but wanted your thoughts. Thank you.

[@shermaleesummers5779]

I have alabaster painted kitchen cabinets. Also open floor plan with a lot of light. Espresso color floors. I’m wanting to paint the walls a grayish color. What do you suggest so that the alabaster doesn’t look off white and dingy?

[@terihagerty9458]

I'm getting ready to paint my Master Bathroom with Alabaster

[@trishaavalos4422]

Which would you think would go with Sherwin Williams “Let It Rain”? We are looking at Modern Gray, Colonnade Gray, Repose Gray and Agreeable Gray. This is for exterior where the siding is let it rain and stucco (majority of home) will be a gray. Trim will be white (probably Pure White)

[@threemooseketeersalaska3614]

I feel for you! I am in the same dilemma. I thought I had decided on colonnade gray and then saw a picture where I actually thought the siding behind the porch was painted pink, but it was just in the shade, then I realized it flashes red/pink a little on my house too. Thats what I call it anyway, doesnt fit the expected purple/blue or green. I am now back to thinking repose or mindful, leaning repose, but its a little washed out at sunset, but great most times of day. I painted samples S/N facing and next to every accent (stone/wood for me) and next to pure white trim/other whites, but Im decided on pure white I think. Looking at them at different times of day, sunset, etc over and over is helping me narrow it down. I had to decide 2 days ago and then snow hit the forecast and gave me more time thank goodness. Time is precious! If I had more I would hire Kylie or a local designer in a heartbeat. Bottom line, nothings perfect at all times of the day. Find the one that makes the most sense and that you can live with. Good luck! Hope you get a professional response! 🤞

Hi Kylie! Thank you so much for your amazing and super informative videos! I’ve probably rewatched every single video a couple of times now lol. I’m currently remodeling my RV and will be using Finding Lovely’s kitchen as my inspiration. She has Repose Gray cabinets, brass hardware with Chantilly Lace walls. My dilemma is the wall color since it’ll encompass the entire front end of the RV (kitchen, dining area and living room). Since I find Chantilly Lace to be too harsh and crisp for all of the earth tones i’ll be using, is there a softer white you can recommend that will compliment it? I was thinking either sw pure white, bm oxford white?? but white dove is really pretty too. oh man, any help is greatly appreciated 😊

[@mariaearnhart8496]

We have repose and love it paired with SW extra white trim! I’d like to keep repose going but lighten some in the other rooms. Any suggestions?

[@KylieMInteriorsPaint]

If you check out my website at: https: www.kylieminteriors.ca/ and search Repose Grey you will find lots of info to help you!

[@mybestideas1]

Ask them to mix it at 50%

[@nelcylovesjb]

What about SW extra white?

[@KylieMInteriorsPaint]

Yup, you could try that, although I prefer the less cool/blue of SW High Reflective White, if I'm looking at a cleaner white approach :).

[@taniagomez1685]

What color walls do you recommend to match with repose gray kitchen cabinets?

[@KylieMInteriorsPaint]

Hi Tania, if you check out www.kylieminteriors.ca/all-about-sherwin-williams-repose-gray/ I have listed some great possibilities for you!

[@CelestialPulseX]

Would the trim colors you suggest apply to the exterior as well? Or, do I consider the coordinating white Sherwin-Williams site recommends? I ordered 4 peel and stick samples to try for our stucco exterior: SW Dovetail, Intellectual Gray, Requisite Gray, and Repose Gray.

[@KylieMInteriorsPaint]

Hey Mr Vegas! Yes, they could DEFINITELY apply - but it can depend on the colour of your windows as to what's best!

[@CelestialPulseX]

@@KylieMInteriorsPaint Thank you for your help.

[@threemooseketeersalaska3614]

Good to know! I figured High reflective would be to bright for exterior. I’ll have to test it out. Thank you!

[@Bluebell2683]

I'm really struggling to pick a neutral that goes with cherry red (with grey/chocolate brown undertones) cabinets and bright white pearl white shell backsplash that isn't too dark or dingy. I've been looking into grey's but Jacob said don't pair green undertones with cherry wood but all the online blogs say pick a green undertone grey. Any tips? Thanks.

[@Bluebell2683]

Just found this: kzbin.info/www/bejne/o2a1haR8haesj5Y Checking it out now. Thanks for making something specific to matching with wood

[@KylieMInteriorsPaint]

And btw, gray with a purple undertone is usually GORGEOUS with cherry red. Green would only HIGHLIGHT the red and the combo isn't always so awesome...

[@Bluebell2683]

@@KylieMInteriorsPaint Thank you. I'll look for grey with purple undertone. I think I checked out green undertones and wasn't a fan :) Edit: I looked up purple grey but only got one to pull up on google: www.sherwin-williams.com/homeowners/color/find-and-explore-colors/paint-colors-by-family/SW7081-sensuous-gray

[@Bluebell2683]

I don't see a video on: SW 7081 Sensuous Gray Interior / Exterior Location Number: 227-C5 yet, maybe when you feel like it you could cover that grey. (Unless I'm just not pulling it up but it exists).

[@contreraz03]

Hello, I made the mistake and bought ultra white paint. Do you think it'll still be a good option?

[@KylieMInteriorsPaint]

For trim with Repose Gray? It depends on the brand, but as long as it's not overly yellow/creamy and is more or less 'white' it should be good!

[@absolutemalmaute9592]

Will this be good with oak furniture and trim?

[@KylieMInteriorsPaint]

Welllllll, it can depend on the stain as oak comes in a WIDE variety. Generally speaking it's not my FAVE with many oaks, just a bit too flat looking.

[@patgollin9131]

Repose gray for exterior ranch style home in a wooded area?

[@KylieMInteriorsPaint]

Definitely could work as long as it jibes with your roof and any stone/brick :).

[@mybestideas1]

Here's an idea - not to do a presentation in front of so many colours. I was just overwhelmed.
