Frisky Blue
M490-4
In shaded rooms, it can become a softer blue-gray. Add warm wood or brass so the color does not feel too cool. Place a cured Frisky Blue board against quartz samples and closet doors before deciding.
Color Codes
Frisky Blue in Different Light
Light temperature is measured in Kelvin: a warm 2700K bulb pulls colors toward yellow, while 5000K daylight reads cooler and truer. Check the color at the time of day you actually use the room.

LRV
65.6LRV measures how much light a color reflects, from 0 (black) to 100 (pure white). Below about 50 a color needs good lighting to avoid going flat, 60 and up helps brighten a room, and most whites sit above 80.
