Behr

Silver Bullet

N520-2

Silver Bullet by Behr is a light, cool-leaning gray with a nearly achromatic quality and a faint warm shift that prevents it from appearing clinical. Its LRV of 77.2 means it reflects substantial light while still registering as a definite gray rather than an off-white. This makes it functional for open-plan living areas, kitchens, and bathrooms where a neutral wall color is needed.

It sits well next to Behr Ultra Pure White on trim, complements Behr Blueprint as a blue accent, and layers naturally with Behr Flannel Gray and Behr Silver City in tonal gray schemes.
