Valspar

Lime Drop

V019-2

Lime Drop is a bright golden yellow with a citrus-green spark. The citrus note jumps forward. Use it in small, intentional areas: a pantry wall, playroom cabinet, or front door.

Broad walls let the yellow dominate quickly. Clean white, navy, or black accents help the color breathe. Warm wood will make it cozier. Test in afternoon sun, where the color may look stronger than expected.

Lime Drop 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.
