What 54.43 tells you about Gray Wisp
The published LRV of Benjamin Moore Gray Wisp CC-670 is 54.43. It describes light reflectance; it does not specify an undertone or predict the brightness of your room. Gray Wisp is deeper than Gray Cashmere and gives gray an aloe-green quality.
The choice beside aged oak and cream stone
Aged oak may reveal a different relationship from pale new timber, so the actual wood finish should guide the green-gray decision.
Compare Gray Wisp and Gray Cashmere at equal size, first considering depth and then hue. A lighter blue, green or pink is still a colored surface. Use the LRV to organize the depth question without assuming that it measures saturation or predicts which hue the room will favor.
What the comparison can—and cannot—settle
Gray Wisp has an LRV of 54.43; Benjamin Moore Gray Cashmere 2138-60 is 64.53. The difference is 10.1 points, with Gray Cashmere returning more light under the reference measurement. Gray Wisp is a light gray with an aloe-green quality. The value measures reflectance, so it cannot by itself identify an undertone, a coating finish or the amount of illumination needed in the room. The daylight and evening-light checks covers that related choice.
Compare the green impression beside the aged wood before deciding whether the wall should read mainly gray. Do not read LRV 54.43 as a percentage improvement in perceived room brightness. Make the decision with the board upright at the actual wall or cabinet position, including the least illuminated portion. The north-facing room assessment covers that related choice. Before ordering samples, compare room-planning features in the paint color visualizer roundup.
