What color is Benjamin Moore Misty Gray?
Benjamin Moore Misty Gray 2124-60 is a very light gray with a faint cool green-blue cast visible beneath its soft off-white surface. Its high brightness keeps walls looking open and clean, while the subtle tint prevents it from reading as plain white. In north-facing light, Misty Gray may appear a little crisper and cooler; warmer afternoon light can soften it toward a quiet pale gray. It suits bedrooms, bathrooms, and airy living areas where a low-contrast wall color is wanted. Pair it with white trim, light oak, brushed nickel, charcoal details, or muted blue-green textiles for a restrained, layered look.

What are Benjamin Moore Misty Gray undertones?
Misty Gray is a very light, low-saturation near-neutral that reads as a soft off-white or pale gray in the supplied digital sample. Any visible color bias is extremely subtle, with a slight greenward direction in the sample rather than a strong, easily defined undertone. Benjamin Moore describes it as a pale blue-gray with a softly cool cast, which fits its overall light gray family but may be more noticeable in paint than in this near-neutral screen color. Warm artificial light can make it appear a little less cool, while cool daylight may make its faint gray-blue character easier to notice.

LRV of Misty Gray
Misty Gray has an LRV of 80.58% and refers to Off‑White 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 80.58%, 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.
