What color is Behr Aging Barrel?
Behr Aging Barrel PPU5-02 is a muted mid-to-deep brown with a noticeable gray cast and soft, earthy warmth. Its #6a5b4e base reads as a weathered taupe-brown rather than a sharp chocolate, helping it feel grounded without becoming overly dark. In bright daylight, the gray-brown character is more apparent, while lower or warmer lighting can bring forward its subtle brown warmth. Aging Barrel suits a dining room, den, entry, or exterior trim where a substantial neutral is needed. Pair it with creamy off-whites, charcoal accents, black metal, aged brass, and natural woods with medium or dark finishes.

LRV of Aging Barrel
Aging Barrel has an LRV of 11.37% and refers to Medium Dark which means that this color reflects very little light. Why LRV is important?
Light Reflectance Value measures the amount of visible and usable light that reflects from a painted surface.
Simply put, the higher the LRV of a paint color, the brighter the room you will get.
The scale goes from 0% (absolute black, absorbing all light) to 100% (pure white, reflecting all light).
Act like a pro: When choosing paint with an LRV of 11.37%, pay attention to your bulbs' brightness. Light brightness is measured in lumens. The lower the paint's LRV, the higher lumen level you need. Every square foot of room needs at least 40 lumens. That means for a 200 ft2 living room you'll need about 8000 lumens of light – e.g., eight 1000 lm bulbs.
