About Toasty Gray
Behr Toasty Gray (N320-2) LRV and undertone
Behr Toasty Gray (N320-2) has an LRV of 61, placing it in the light range according to the supplied depth classification. Light reflectance value measures the visible light a painted surface reflects, from 0 for black to 100 for white. Its value indicates that Toasty Gray can reflect a substantial amount of light while retaining more color depth than a very pale white. The greige color family combines gray and beige characteristics. Its calculated yellow undertone adds a warm component that may become more apparent beside cooler grays or whites. Lighting changes the balance perceived in a room: north-facing light often emphasizes cooler contrasts, while south-facing light can make warm undertones more apparent. Flooring and nearby furnishings can also influence the overall color impression.

Behr Chic Gray (PPU26-10) has an LRV of 60 and a ΔE of 2.2, making it marginally darker despite the visible measured difference.
For a lighter option, Behr Aged Beige (PPU7-09) has an LRV of 63 and a ΔE of 1.8. It reflects more light and may suit a room where a small increase in brightness is desirable. Compare samples against trim and flooring at different times of day. Use the same sheen when testing, because surface gloss can affect perceived brightness.
