What color is Benjamin Moore Mopboard Black?
Benjamin Moore Mopboard Black CW-680 is a deep charcoal-black with a nearly neutral cast rather than a pronounced colored undertone. At #373839, it reads close to black in low light, while brighter daylight can reveal its softened charcoal character. Use it on cabinetry, interior doors, trim, or a single accent wall when a true dark anchor is needed without the sharper effect of pure black. Pair Mopboard Black with warm white walls, pale oak, aged brass, or natural linen to bring contrast and texture into the room. On an exterior, it can give shutters or a front door a grounded, low-gloss-looking presence against lighter siding or stone.

LRV of Mopboard Black
Mopboard Black has an LRV of 6.16% and refers to Dark colors which means that this color almost does not reflect 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 6.16%, 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.
