What color is Valspar UK Clamshack?

Valspar UK Clamshack X136R267C is a muted blue-green grey with a softly weathered, mid-tone appearance. Its green influence is noticeable, while the cool blue-grey base keeps it from reading too earthy or overtly teal. In bright daylight, Clamshack can appear cleaner and slightly bluer; under warmer lamps, its greyed green side becomes more apparent. It suits bathrooms, utility rooms, fitted cabinetry, or a calm living-room wall, especially alongside off-white trim, pale oak, brushed nickel, and charcoal details. Pair it with chalky whites and warm natural textures to prevent the cool undertones from feeling stark.
