Benjamin Moore LRV Chart (Light Reflectance Values Cheat Sheet)

Looking for a quick Benjamin Moore LRV chart? This reference lists the light reflectance values (LRV) for many commonly used Benjamin Moore colors so you can easily tell what percentage of light each color reflects back from the light that shines upon it.  *Remember this is not a representation of how WHITE a color is, just what percentage of light is reflected back. (80=80% light reflected back)

Read why LRV is often misunderstood

LRV stands for Light Reflectance Value. It measures how much visible light a paint color reflects on a scale from 0-100.  A color with an LRV of 0 absorbs nearly all light, while a color with an LRV of 100 reflects almost all light. *It is a common misunderstanding that LRV represents how WHITE a color appears.  This is exactly where most paint color decisions go wrong. This is entirely untrue and something I visually debunk in much of my visual content on social media.
