What color is Behr Hidden Sea Glass?

Behr Hidden Sea Glass P450-4 is a clear, light blue-green with a distinctly cool cast and enough color to read beyond a pale neutral. Its aqua character can bring a crisp note to bathroom walls, a sunroom, or a kitchen island without making the room feel overly dark. In bright daylight, the blue-green tone appears fresh and clean, while warmer indoor lighting may draw out a slightly greener impression. Pair it with soft white trim, pale oak, light limestone, or brushed nickel for an airy look, or add charcoal and matte black for sharper contrast. It is especially effective on broad walls or cabinetry where its clean saturation has room to show.

Light Reflectance Value scale illustration

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 45.02%, 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.
