Valspar

Mustard Glaze

3006-3A

Mustard Glaze is a strong golden yellow with a brown ocher base. It is sunny and bold. A front door, pantry cabinet, or small breakfast area can use it when the room needs energy.

The color stays lighter than deep mustard, so it can reflect more light than expected. Cream trim can push the ocher side richer, so sample beside it first. Dark green grounds it. Cool gray counters may make the yellow look sharper.

Mustard Glaze 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.
