Hex and LRV verified against Behr’s published color data · 2026
Every white claims to be neutral; this one's true neutral is what actually shows up once the paint dries. 52, from Behr.
Chroma 2.6 - faint on a chip, unmistakable across a wall. With an LRV of 83.0, this bounces light into every corner of a room, which is exactly why whites get used in small or dark spaces.
A white this reflective picks up cast light from everywhere in the room, so the true neutral can read differently on each wall depending on what faces it. A dependable choice for small rooms, hallways, and anywhere natural light is limited.
A flat finish keeps the light diffusion smooth across wide wall areas.
Vista Paint Iced Silver (8236) matches it closely enough that no one will tell them apart on a wall. This is not a rare shade: 8 colors from other brands sit within delta-E 2 of it.
It is lighter than 92 percent of the Behr range. The name is not unique: Benjamin Moore OC-151 and Kilz RJ110 also sell a color called White, and it is not the same shade. Behr lists it in the 0000 series, alongside 9 other colors.
