What color is Behr Paparazzi Flash?
Behr Paparazzi Flash MQ5-18 is a light, muted blue-gray with a cool cast and soft, low-saturation appearance. Its pale value keeps it airy on broad walls, while the blue undertone is subtle enough that it can read as a clean gray in warmer artificial light. In daylight, the shade is more likely to show its gentle steel-blue character. It suits bedrooms, bathrooms, and home offices where a quiet, lightly cool backdrop is wanted. Pair Paparazzi Flash with crisp white trim, charcoal details, pale oak, brushed nickel, or deep navy accents for definition.

LRV of Paparazzi Flash
Paparazzi Flash has an LRV of 59.1% and refers to Light colors that reflect most 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 59.1%, 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.
