What color is Behr Silver Ash?
Behr Silver Ash GR-W11 is a light, muted gray with a soft beige cast that keeps it from reading cold or stark. Its low-saturation finish gives walls a gently weathered, off-white appearance, especially in rooms with abundant daylight. Under warmer bulbs, Silver Ash can lean more toward pale greige, while cooler natural light brings out its quiet gray side. It suits living rooms, bedrooms, hallways, and open-plan spaces where a subtle neutral is needed without the brightness of pure white. Pair it with creamy trim, light oak, brushed nickel, charcoal accents, or dusty blue textiles for a grounded, understated palette.
LRV of Silver Ash
Silver Ash has an LRV of 70.24% 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 70.24%, 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.
