What color is Behr Silver Polish?
Behr Silver Polish BL-W13 is a pale, silvery gray with a cool blue cast that keeps it from reading flat or beige. In bright daylight, it can look nearly white on larger walls, while north-facing rooms may bring out its soft blue-gray side. It suits bathrooms, bedrooms, and airy kitchens where a clean, lightly reflective backdrop is wanted. Pair it with crisp warm white trim, pale oak, brushed nickel, marble, or navy accents for a composed look. Under warm evening lamps, this shade tends to soften and feel more like muted silver than icy gray.

LRV of Silver Polish
Silver Polish has an LRV of 75.6% 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 75.6%, 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.
