What color is Benjamin Moore Sea Isle?
Benjamin Moore Sea Isle 751 is a light, airy blue-green with a noticeable cool cast and a softly muted finish. Its pale aqua character can read a little bluer in north-facing rooms, while warm daylight brings out more of its gentle green tint. This shade has enough color for a powder room, laundry room, or bedroom wall without making the space feel overly saturated. Pair it with clean white trim, light oak, woven natural fibers, or pale gray stone to keep the look fresh and grounded. Sea Isle also makes a pleasing accent for a painted ceiling, built-in shelving, or a front door against a crisp white exterior.

LRV of Sea Isle
Sea Isle has an LRV of 61.73% 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 61.73%, 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.
