What color is Benjamin Moore Kid Gloves?

Benjamin Moore Kid Gloves CSP-175 is a muted, light-to-mid-depth beige-gray with a gently earthy, khaki-leaning cast. Its low saturation keeps it subdued rather than creamy or strongly tan, giving walls a soft, weathered look. In bright daylight, Kid Gloves can read as a pale warm gray, while lower or warmer lighting brings forward its beige and olive-taupe notes. It suits living rooms, bedrooms, and hallways where a quiet neutral is wanted without a stark white backdrop. Pair it with warm white trim, natural oak, aged brass, linen upholstery, and deeper charcoal or brown accents.

Light Reflectance Value scale illustration

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 40.94%, 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.
