What color is Behr Maple Glaze?
Behr Maple Glaze PPU3-16 is a medium-depth, earthy brown with a clear baked-clay orange cast. Its warm red-brown base gives it more color presence than a standard tan, while the muted finish keeps it from reading overly bright. In daylight, Maple Glaze can show its terracotta warmth more clearly; under softer evening light, it tends to settle into a deeper, wood-toned brown. It suits dining rooms, dens, entryways, and accent walls where a grounded, sun-warmed color is wanted. Pair it with creamy off-whites, warm beige textiles, aged brass, natural oak, or dark walnut for a layered look.
LRV of Maple Glaze
Maple Glaze has an LRV of 18.72% 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 18.72%, 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.
