Valspar

Ghost Ship

4007-3A

Ghost Ship is a light mist-blue gray with a cool cast. The cool blue cast suits baths with white porcelain. It can freshen bathrooms, bedrooms, or ceilings without becoming a strong coastal blue.

The color stays comfortably light, so it works beyond small accents. Pair with crisp white trim and warm natural fibers. In rooms with little daylight, it may lose some blue and settle into pale gray.

Ghost Ship 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.
