What color is Benjamin Moore Black Jack?
Benjamin Moore Black Jack 2133-20 is a deep, near-black gray with an almost neutral read and the faintest cool edge. Its low value gives walls a strong, enclosing presence, while the soft gray cast keeps it from appearing like a flat, absolute black. In bright natural light, subtle charcoal detail may emerge; at night or in low-lit rooms, it can look nearly black. Use it on cabinetry, interior doors, a fireplace surround, or a study wall where a dark finish feels intentional rather than decorative. Pale oak, warm white trim, brushed brass, and creamy stone offer clear contrast against this shade.

LRV of Black Jack
Black Jack has an LRV of 6.04% and refers to Dark colors which means that this color almost does not reflect 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 6.04%, 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.
