What color is Behr Sleek White?

Behr Sleek White OR-W15 is a very light off-white with a soft creamy cast, shaped by its subtle yellow-beige undertone. It reads warmer than a stark pure white, especially in south-facing rooms or under incandescent lighting, where its ivory quality becomes more noticeable. In cooler daylight, it can appear cleaner and closer to white while still avoiding a bluish edge. Use it on walls and ceilings to soften a living room, bedroom, or hallway without making the space feel heavily colored. Sleek White pairs naturally with pale oak, warm limestone, woven textures, muted clay accents, and soft greige or olive details.

Light Reflectance Value scale illustration

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 92.07%, 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.
