What color is Valspar UK Watery Green?

Valspar UK Watery Green R247F is a pale, lightly muted green with a soft mint cast and a clean, airy appearance. Its high lightness keeps it from feeling heavy on full walls, while the gentle green tint gives white-painted trim a subtle point of contrast. In daylight, this color is likely to read fresh and slightly cooler; under warmer bulbs, it can take on a softer, more subdued character. It suits bathrooms, kitchens, utility rooms, and bedrooms where a low-saturation wash of color is wanted without losing brightness. Pair Watery Green with warm white, pale oak, brushed nickel, or natural linen for a calm, lightly layered finish.
