A few tips to know before we get into the best Benjamin Moore gray paint colors.

Paint colors are often created by using two or more colors. An undertone is created when there is a higher percentage of one color over the other.

Want to figure out what undertone you should go with?

•Pick up a few gray color chips your like. Stack them on top of one another to see brightness levels and undertones.

•Use gray color chips and layer them on your home furnishings. This can help you see what undertone will work best in your room.

•Buy gray paint samples and paint large swatches on walls in different lighting conditions. Or use Samplize Peel & Stick Paint Samples. They are super easy to use and mess-free!

Now the question of a warm or cool gray paint?

Warm grays, or brown-gray—or the ever so popular "greige"—are very welcoming, while cooler gray paint colors like green-gray and blue-gray, have more of a modern feel.

Light exposure plays a large role in the gray's undertone.

Opt for a warmer gray paint color if your room has north-facing light. The reason is, northern light reveals more of the gray paint's blue and green undertones.

The more flattering south-facing light gives you the opportunity to the variety of gray paint colors you can use in your room.

Top 10 Benjamin Moore Gray Paint Colors

I decided to share a few gray paint colors that are underrated in my opinion. People tend to go to the most popular colors by default and you can't blame them those colors are popular for good reason.  However, there are so many grays Benjamin Moore carries that are just as gorgeous as the popular grays.

BM Gray Paint Colors

Let me start with the lighter gray paint colors first. Lighter grays are by far more popular and are always requested by customers. I have some great light warm gray options as well as light cool gray options to share with you.

Gray Cloud is a Benjamin Moore gray that is on the cool side. This cool-toned gray paint color can look almost like an icy blue in certain lighting. It can also be considered a blue gray paint color.

For instance in north-facing rooms. The visible temperature in north-facing rooms is cool and the color of the light is bluish. So if you decide to go with BM Gray Cloud in a north-facing room you can expect to see the blue tones come out.

 If you are looking for a gray paint color with a cool undertone, Benjamin Moore Gray Cloud is a fantastic option.
