What color is Behr Snowboard?
Behr Snowboard S460-4 is a softened medium blue with a cool, lightly muted cast that keeps it from reading overly bright. Its blue-green lean is most noticeable in daylight, while lower or warmer light can make the color appear a little grayer and more subdued. Snowboard brings enough color to a bathroom, laundry room, or bedroom wall without making the room feel visually busy. Pair it with crisp white trim, pale oak, weathered wood, or brushed nickel for a clean, grounded look. On cabinetry or an exterior door, this shade has the depth to stand apart against warm off-whites and sandy neutrals.

LRV of Snowboard
Snowboard has an LRV of 32.94% and refers to Medium 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 32.94%, 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.
