What color is Behr Coastal Jetty?
Behr Coastal Jetty MQ4-54 is a deep blue-green with a cool cast and enough saturation to read clearly without looking overly bright. Its teal character becomes more pronounced in daylight, while lower or warmer lighting can make it appear darker and more blue-toned. Use it on a powder room wall, built-in shelving, or lower kitchen cabinets where its depth can anchor lighter finishes. Crisp white trim, pale sand, weathered oak, brushed nickel, and matte black hardware all give this color a clean, grounded setting. On an exterior door or covered porch accent, Coastal Jetty brings noticeable color while still holding up well beside neutral siding or stone.

LRV of Coastal Jetty
Coastal Jetty has an LRV of 8.13% and refers to Dark colors which means that this color almost does not reflect 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 8.13%, 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.
