Valspar

Olive to the Max

T610

Olive to the Max is a deep olive khaki with a subdued yellow-brown base. The name fits the mood. Use it for mudroom cabinets or a cozy office wall.

Cream trim makes it warmer. Black accents give it discipline. Because the color has low brightness, it can become heavy on all four walls unless the room has generous daylight or strong lamps.

Olive to the Max 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.
