Valspar
Deep Channel
8006-8E
In rooms with little daylight, it can look more charcoal than blue. Warm oak, cream walls, or brushed nickel for balance keep the undertone useful. Check Deep Channel beside art, especially pieces with clean whites.

Deep Channel 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
18.0LRV 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.
