What color is Dulux Lead Grey?

Dulux Lead Grey 28GG 22/002 is a medium, closely balanced grey with a soft, low-saturation appearance. Its near-even red, green, and blue values give it a largely neutral cast rather than a pronounced blue, brown, or green undertone. In bright daylight, Lead Grey can read as a clean, straightforward mid-grey, while lower light may make it appear deeper and more grounded. It suits living room walls, hallways, or exterior details where a clear grey is wanted without the heaviness of charcoal. Pair it with crisp white trim, pale stone, black metal, or natural oak for contrast and texture.

Light Reflectance Value scale illustration

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 20.64%, 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.
