What color is Valspar UK Mint Zing?

Valspar UK Mint Zing X116R224B is a mid-tone green with a gentle yellow cast, giving it the look of softened foliage rather than a cool, blue-leaning green. Its muted saturation keeps the color grounded on larger wall areas, while still providing more presence than a pale neutral. In bright daylight, Mint Zing reads as a fresh natural green; under warmer evening lighting, its yellow undertone can make it appear slightly earthier. It suits kitchens, utility rooms, garden-facing living spaces, or painted cabinetry paired with warm white walls and light oak. For contrast, try it alongside chalky cream, terracotta accessories, matte black hardware, or deep charcoal details.
