What color is Valspar UK Opal Glow?

Valspar UK Opal Glow X122R255F is a light, muted blue-green with a softly frosted appearance. Its cool aqua cast is gentle rather than bright, with enough greyed softness to keep it from reading like a vivid mint. In north-facing rooms it may lean cleaner and bluer, while warm artificial light can draw out its quieter green notes. Use it on bedroom or bathroom walls for a pale wash of colour, or on kitchen cabinetry alongside white worktops and brushed nickel hardware. Pale oak, chalky white, soft grey and deeper blue-green accents give this shade a considered, grounded setting.
