Valspar

Sebastian Inlet

V104-3

Valspar Sebastian Inlet is a medium muted blue with a soft teal-gray undertone. Restrained, not beachy. The color suits bathrooms, bedrooms, and built-ins, especially alongside white tile or stone.

It has enough depth to show up clearly on cabinetry. Use warm white, brushed nickel, or natural oak around the edges. In dim corners, it can shift more gray-blue than aqua.
