What color is Benjamin Moore Wet Concrete?
Benjamin Moore Wet Concrete 2114-40 is a muted, medium-depth gray softened by a noticeable rosy-brown cast. Its low-saturation finish keeps the color grounded rather than overtly pink, giving walls a weathered taupe-gray appearance. In daylight, Wet Concrete can read as a gentle warm gray, while warmer evening bulbs may draw out its dusty blush undertone. It suits bedrooms, dining rooms, and powder rooms where a neutral needs more character than standard beige or gray. Pair it with creamy off-whites, charcoal accents, natural oak, aged brass, or dark brown wood for a layered, material-focused look.

LRV of Wet Concrete
Wet Concrete has an LRV of 27.45% 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 27.45%, 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.
