About Silver Satin
Silver Satin LRV and undertone
Benjamin Moore Silver Satin (OC-26) has an LRV of 74.9, placing it in the light color depth range. Its color family is white, and its calculated undertone is warm yellow. Light reflectance value measures how much visible light a painted surface reflects. This relatively high LRV means Silver Satin can help maintain a bright appearance compared with darker wall colors. Its yellow undertone may become more apparent beside cooler whites or under lighting that emphasizes warmth. In north-facing rooms, cooler daylight can change how warm undertones appear. South-facing spaces generally receive warmer daylight, which can affect the overall color impression. Test a sample next to your trim and flooring, and check it in both daylight and evening light before committing to a finish.
