Valspar

Midnight Teal

M334

Midnight Teal is a dark muted teal with a gray base. It stays more smoky than bright. The color can anchor bathroom vanities, built-ins, or a compact office.

Since LRV 9 keeps it very dark, use it where contrast and lighting are already planned. Pale wood gives lift. Brushed brass adds warmth without fighting the teal. On full walls, sample in corners because shadow can turn it nearly charcoal.

Midnight Teal 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.
