Valspar

Late Day Sun

3006-4A

Late Day Sun is a bright golden yellow with a warm honey center. It feels sunny immediately. The color can lift a breakfast room, laundry area, or back hallway that needs warmth.

On large walls, it will read more colorful than the chip. White trim and natural wood give it a clean result. Rooms with strong afternoon sun need a sample first to avoid too much glow.

Late Day Sun 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.
