Valspar

Times Current

8003-45G

Valspar Times Current is an inky navy with a blue black feel. Serious quickly. A library, built-ins, or exterior shutters can handle it where a classic dark color belongs and the lighting plan is strong.

At LRV 5, sheen matters. Warm white trim, polished brass, or oak floors help the blue show instead of disappearing into near black at night.
