Valspar

Aqua Dance

5002-8B

Aqua Dance is a saturated blue-teal with a clear green undertone. It moves. The color belongs on a bath vanity, powder room wall, front door, or playful built-in rather than a shy background.

LRV 23 means it carries depth indoors. Pair with crisp white and simple metal finishes. Warm bulbs may pull it greener at night. Use it with restraint if nearby rooms rely on quiet neutrals.

Aqua Dance 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.
