Valspar

Air Kiss

4007-7A

Air Kiss is a light airy blue with a soft aqua-gray cast. Aqua keeps small baths awake. The brightness suits baths, bedrooms, or laundry rooms, but the blue will still show clearly on the wall.

White trim keeps it fresh. Pale wood and woven shades make it less clinical. In shaded rooms, it may cool down quickly. Test beside cream cabinets, because the contrast can make Air Kiss look more saturated.

Air Kiss 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.
