What color is Benjamin Moore Metallic Silver?
Benjamin Moore Metallic Silver 2132-60 is a light, muted gray with a cool cast and a soft blue-gray influence. Its low saturation keeps it from reading icy, giving walls a clean, gently softened appearance rather than a sharp industrial look. In bright daylight, Metallic Silver can appear pale and airy; under warmer evening lighting, it tends to look slightly deeper and more neutral. It suits bedrooms, bathrooms, and modern living spaces where a quiet gray is wanted without strong contrast. Pair it with crisp white trim, charcoal accents, brushed nickel, pale oak, or deep navy textiles for a measured, contemporary palette.
LRV of Metallic Silver
Metallic Silver has an LRV of 57.22% and refers to Light colors that reflect most of the incident 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 57.22%, 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.
