What color is Behr Pink Chalk?
Behr Pink Chalk MQ3-03 is a very light, muted off-white with a soft blush-gray cast. Its low saturation keeps it from reading overtly pink, giving walls a quiet, powdery appearance rather than a pastel look. In bright daylight, this shade can appear close to a warm pale gray, while lower or warmer lighting brings out its subtle rosy undertone. It suits bedrooms, bathrooms, and living areas where a barely-there color is wanted in place of plain white. Pair Pink Chalk with creamy whites, pale oak, brushed brass, charcoal accents, or soft taupe textiles for a grounded finish.
LRV of Pink Chalk
Pink Chalk has an LRV of 74.46% and refers to Off‑White colors that reflect a lot of 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 74.46%, 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.
