What color is Behr Clear Aqua?
Behr Clear Aqua P440-2 is a light, softly muted aqua with a noticeable green cast and a clean, airy appearance. Its pale value keeps it from feeling overly blue, giving walls a fresh wash of color rather than a bold statement. In bright daylight, Clear Aqua can look crisp and lightly minty, while lower or cooler light may bring out its quieter blue-green side. It suits bathrooms, laundry rooms, sunrooms, and bedrooms, especially alongside warm white trim, pale oak, woven natural fibers, and brushed nickel. For more contrast, pair this shade with deep charcoal, navy, or dark green accents.
LRV of Clear Aqua
Clear Aqua has an LRV of 72.56% and refers to Off‑White colors that reflect a lot of 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 72.56%, 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.
