What color is Behr Flustered Mustard?
Behr Flustered Mustard P320-6A is a warm, mid-tone golden yellow with an earthy mustard cast rather than a bright, lemony look. Its muted richness gives it enough depth for a dining room wall, a sunlit kitchen, or a painted built-in where a clearer yellow might feel too sharp. In direct daylight, this color reads more golden, while lower or warmer indoor light can bring out its deeper ochre quality. Pair Flustered Mustard with creamy off-whites, charcoal, deep olive, or dusty blue for contrast that keeps the palette grounded. Natural oak, aged brass, black metal, and tan leather are especially compatible materials for this shade.

LRV of Flustered Mustard
Flustered Mustard has an LRV of 50.42% and refers to Light Medium colors that reflect half of the incident 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 50.42%, 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.
