What color is Behr Swirling Water?
Behr Swirling Water PR-W10 is a very light, cool-leaning gray with a faint blue cast visible in its #E6E9E9 color value. Its low saturation keeps the color close to an off-white, so it reads clean and airy on broad walls without looking stark. In bright daylight, Swirling Water can appear almost pale gray-white, while lower or cooler light brings out its subtle blue-gray undertone. It suits bathrooms, bedrooms, laundry rooms, and modern kitchens where a quiet backdrop is wanted. Pair it with crisp white trim, brushed nickel, pale oak, charcoal accents, or soft blue textiles for a restrained, cohesive look.
LRV of Swirling Water
Swirling Water has an LRV of 80.72% 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 80.72%, 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.
