Silver Satin

Benjamin Moore

OC-26

Silver Satin is a luminous gray-white that leans slightly warm, soft enough to read as off-white in bright rooms. It is a go-to for open-plan main floors and rentals-turned-refined, where one forgiving color must work everywhere. It is grayer than Classic Gray and warmer than Paper White, occupying useful middle ground.

What is the Sherwin-Williams equivalent of Silver Satin?

Is Silver Satin warm or cool?

Silver Satin is close to balanced, tipping slightly warm. Its soft gray undertone has a satiny, light-reflective quality without obvious yellow or blue. At an LRV of approximately 76, it functions as a bright near-white that still separates from white trim. It adapts unusually well across exposures, reading warmer in south light and grayer in north light without ever looking like a different color.

Why does Silver Satin look different on screen than on the wall?

Screens emit light while paint reflects it, so a hex code cannot capture how lighting, sheen, and surrounding colors shift paint in a real room. Treat #E3E2DA as accurate for digital design work, and use physical samples for final approval.

What LRV does Silver Satin have?

Silver Satin has a Light Reflectance Value of approximately 76, meaning it reflects about 76% of visible light. That places it among lighter colors that keep rooms feeling open and bright.
