Valspar

Beguile

5002-2A

Beguile is a medium muted green-gray with a smoky mineral quality. The green hides until daylight improves. It can sit on cabinetry, mudroom walls, or an office where a standard gray feels lifeless.

In shaded rooms, expect more gray than green. Warm wood and linen pull the color earthier. Use clean trim for definition. A glossy surface will show the undertone more clearly than flat paint.

Beguile 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.
