What color is Benjamin Moore Secret Path?
Benjamin Moore Secret Path CSP-800 is a muted gray-green with an earthy olive cast that keeps it grounded rather than bright. Its medium depth gives walls noticeable color while the softened saturation prevents it from feeling heavy. In daylight, Secret Path can read as a dusty botanical green, while lower or warmer light draws out its grayer, more subdued side. It suits studies, mudrooms, kitchens, and covered exterior details, especially alongside warm white trim, natural oak, aged brass, and matte black hardware. Pair it with clay-toned textiles or charcoal accents for a room that feels layered and connected to natural materials.

LRV of Secret Path
Secret Path has an LRV of 27.52% and refers to Medium 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 27.52%, 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.
