How Q826 behaves on a wall

Our estimate, worked out from the hex colour, puts the light reflectance value of this Tikkurila shade at about 39.0; Tikkurila's own figure may differ. At an estimated LRV of 39.0 this sits mid-scale — dark enough to hold its own against white trim, light enough not to close a room in. Mid-tones shift the most between daylight and lamplight, so check it at both ends of the day. For trim that reads as a clear edge rather than a smudge, aim about 30 LRV points away in either direction — under LRV 9 or over LRV 69. Its red and blue channels are within a few points of each other, so it has no undertone worth naming — it takes its cast from whatever it sits beside. Order by the code, not the name, and put a test patch on the wall before you commit — a screen cannot show you how this shade behaves in your own light.
