Valspar

Drumskin

7003-10

Drumskin is a warm cream with a tan, parchment-like center. It bounces light generously. Use it where a plain white would look thin, especially near oak floors, woven shades, or aged brass.

On trim, it will look noticeably creamy beside cooler wall colors. A north-facing room may pull some gray from it, but the yellow base keeps the result from going cold. Test it next to counters before using it in a kitchen.

Drumskin 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 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.
