Valspar

Secret Mission

V145-5

Valspar Secret Mission is a deep gray-brown with an olive undertone. It feels quiet and serious. This shade suits built-ins, interior doors, exterior trim, and offices where black would feel too hard.

Under low light, it can look nearly charcoal. Bring in cream walls, warm stone, or brushed bronze for balance. Because the green is subtle, test it beside flooring before using it as a whole-room color.
