Valspar
April Rain
V100-4
In brighter daylight, the green comes forward. Warm bulbs settle it down. Pair with white trim, brushed nickel, or pale oak. In very dark rooms, it may need extra lighting to stay fresh.

April Rain 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
38.5LRV 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.
