What color is Benjamin Moore Cool Blue?
Benjamin Moore Cool Blue 2058-40 is a clear, medium-depth blue with a noticeable cyan cast that keeps it crisp rather than navy or powdery. Its lively saturation gives it enough presence for an accent wall, painted furniture, or a small bathroom where a stronger color can feel intentional. In bright daylight, the color reads fresh and blue-forward, while lower light can bring out its deeper teal-blue character. Pair Cool Blue with clean white trim, pale gray tile, light oak, or natural woven materials to let its brightness stand out. For a bolder combination, it can sit nicely beside coral accents, sunny yellow details, or deep charcoal finishes.
LRV of Cool Blue
Cool Blue has an LRV of 29.87% 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 29.87%, 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.
