What color is Benjamin Moore Chalk White?
Benjamin Moore Chalk White 2126-70 is a very light off-white with a faint cool gray-green cast visible beneath its soft, near-white surface. Its low saturation keeps it clean rather than icy, though north-facing rooms may bring out its cooler edge. In brighter daylight, Chalk White reads as an airy pale neutral that gives walls definition without creating strong contrast. It suits bedrooms, bathrooms, and open living areas where a barely-there color feels more considered than plain white. Pair it with pale oak, brushed nickel, soft charcoal, muted sage, or crisp white trim for a restrained, natural palette.

LRV of Chalk White
Chalk White has an LRV of 82.44% and refers to White colors that reflect almost all 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 82.44%, 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.
