What color is Valspar UK Fountain Foam?

Valspar UK Fountain Foam X137R269E is a light, muted green with a gentle grey cast that keeps it looking soft rather than sugary. Its low saturation gives walls a powdery, understated finish, while the hint of green is clearer in daylight. In cooler north-facing rooms, this shade can read more silvery and greyed; warmer bulbs bring out its quieter sage side. Use it across bedroom, bathroom, or hallway walls with chalky whites, pale oak, limestone, and brushed nickel. For a little contrast, pair Fountain Foam with deeper olive greens, charcoal details, or matte black hardware.
