What color is Benjamin Moore Tequila Lime?
Benjamin Moore Tequila Lime 2028-30 is a bright yellow-green with a crisp, energetic chartreuse character. Its golden cast keeps it warmer than a leafy green, while the medium-light depth gives it enough presence for a feature wall or painted cabinet. In direct daylight, this shade can read especially vivid and citrusy; lower or cooler light may bring out a slightly greener edge. Use it in a breakfast nook, mudroom, children’s space, or on a small accent piece where a strong dose of color feels appropriate. Clean white trim, pale wood, matte black hardware, and deep navy or charcoal accents give Tequila Lime a grounded contrast.

LRV of Tequila Lime
Tequila Lime has an LRV of 41.65% and refers to Light Medium colors that reflect half 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 41.65%, 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.
