What are the Best TRUE GRAY Paint Colors with NO UNDERTONES?

Posted on November 21, 2020 by KylieMawdsley

THE MOST POPULAR TRUE GRAYS (Benjamin and Sherwin)

If you’ve been looking for the most NEUTRAL gray paint color with NO UNDERTONES, you’re going to be looking for a looooong time.

Why? Because EVERY gray paint color has undertones. However, that’s not to say there aren’t grays that are MORE NEUTRAL than others, which is why today, we’re taking a close look at some of the more popular, relatively NEUTRAL gray paint colors from Benjamin Moore and Sherwin Williams.

BUT FIRST…we need to have a chat with our big girl undies on and two boxes – one full of wine and one full of Kleenex for all those tears you’re gonna cry.

As I mentioned above, every gray will have undertones and in fact, I have an entire blog post dedicated to this topic. But, on top of that, there are OTHER BIG ISSUES at play when trying to find the best gray paint color for you and your home.

GRAY PAINT COLORS ARE SUBJECT TO PERCEPTION & PERSONAL OPINION

If a gray paint color has a blue undertone it DOES, if it has a green or purple undertone it DOES, but that doesn’t mean you SEE IT THAT WAY or that it will look that way in your room to YOU.

A lot depends on how you actually see color, which can be skewed by any number of things, including…

  • Degrees of color blindness (of which there are many and is more common in men than women)
  • PERSONAL biases toward one undertone or another. I’ve had clients tell me they see green in EVERYTHING as they are sensitive to it, even when there isn’t any green to be found!
  • Your idea of what a ‘neutral gray with no undertones’ looks like. Again, some people see gray-purples as neutral, others see gray-blues as the most neutral (fewer people see gray-greens as true grays though)
  • What you choose to partner your gray paint color with. A gray that COULD’VE looked neutral to you, might look blue if you put it with a warmer tone. A gray that could’ve been YOUR BEST true gray, could look green if you partner it with a gray with a purple undertone. There are MANY scenarios where your PERCEPTION can be altered

How do I know this? Well, in my Online Color Consulting, clients send me inspiration photos or written info showing me the ‘true gray look’ they want on their walls. Some will send me photos of Benjamin Moore Stonington Gray or Collingwood. Others will send photos of Sherwin Williams Repose Gray or Light French Gray as to THEM, they look like true grays. 

But they aren’t. Do we need a drink break? Silly question, OF COURSE WE DO.

GRAY PAINT COLORS CAN SHIFT DRASTICALLY DEPENDING ON THEIR ENVIRONMENT

That’s right, even THE MOST NEUTRAL gray paint color WILL change on a room-to-room basis depending on the exposure of that room, the amount and QUALITY of light coming in, the light bulbs, the surrounding hard surfaces and even the soft furnishings. Again, the COLOR ITSELF WON’T CHANGE (it is what it is), but how it looks on your wall and your perception of it will.

For example, if you have…

  • North-facing light. Grays can lean HARDER into their cool base, picking up more undertone. And because north-facing light is a gray-blue light, many gray paint colors can flex into that unintentionally
  • South-facing or warm afternoon western-light. Some grays can look softer and warmer and not so ‘legit gray’ or cool as they might in another room
  • A countertop that has, say, purple undertones and you partner it with a gray that DOESN’T HAVE purple undertones but a very vague green instead (but looks gray to you), the green undertone could be ENHANCED due to the fact that opposites can bounce off each other and make each other stronger. So, what LOOKED like a neutral gray, could turn out to have an undertone you didn’t expect, simply because it was given the wrong partner (Tim feels this way all the time – definitely unexpected)
  • Beige toned carpet, tiles or furniture. If you have these warmer tones and partner them with what LOOKS like a darned neutral gray, the warm undertones of your beige could GLORIFY the cool undertone that’s in the gray paint color, making it look stronger and LESS neutral

Look at how the UNDERTONE of this gray paint color changes from left to right, going from slightly blue, to warmer and slightly green

And one of my more IMPORTANT POINTS (even though ALL of my points are important #jokingnotjoking), which is actually a question I get ALL the time in my Virtual Paint Color Consulting

WHY DOES MY PAINT COLOR LOOK GREEN IN MY ROOM?

This happens to even the BEST neutral paint colors, everything from gray and greige to beige, cream and white – they can ALL (quite easily) pick up an unintended green undertone given the right environment.

In this next photo, you’re looking at Benjamin Moore Collingwood which is a warm gray paint color that actually COMMITS to a purple undertone (whereas some are more flexible), yet it looks greenish…

THERE ARE THREE VERY GOOD REASONS WHY YOUR PAINT COLOR MAY BE FLASHING GREEN ON YOUR WALLS

1. The windows have a tint, glaze or reflective barrier on them which has a subtle green cast

2. There’s a lot of grass, trees or landscaping outside the window, which are OFTEN combined with south or west-facing afternoon sunshine. These sun rays can SO EASILY grab that green and reflect it on the walls. DAMN THAT SUN! Says me, who begs for it on the cloudy West Coast of Canada

3. You chose a gray paint color with a particular blue or blue-green undertone that’s reacting with your warm-toned light bulbs or that golden south-facing western light shining through your windows, turning the walls a slight shade of green

And now, looking considerably grayer and bluer…

When this happens, you end up in a tricky spot as to counteract and balance that green reflection on your walls, you’ll want to focus on the warmer end of things, using colors with orange, red (pink) and sometimes even purple undertones (which works GREAT if you want colors in the warm range). However, for those wanting a cooler approach, once the sun goes down (not Elton John style), you’re left with a color that’s FAR from your perfect neutral gray.

Sometimes we just can’t get what we want and have to find a happy medium OR accept what is (insert meditation and deep breathing exercises here). Short of that, board up the windows and call it a day (you can also try daylight bulbs with slightly higher kelvins, although personally, I find them a bit bright and harsh for many homes).

So, let’s dive in and see what I’ve got. These are colors I know are relatively neutral, but have also resonated with my Online Color Consulting clients who are looking for that EVER-ELUSIVE perfectly true gray.

All of these grays have undertones that WILL SHIFT based on your perception and their environment – but these are your best shot at getting a true gray paint color.

In order of lightest to darkest…

BENJAMIN MOORE GRAY OWL OC-52 / 2137-60 

  • LRV 65.77
  • UNDERTONES: Gray Owl has a green-blue undertone

Benjamin Moore Gray Owl is DEFINITELY one of the top gray paint colors. And while you wouldn’t know to LOOK at it, in some circles it’s considered a slightly warm gray. However, it does favor cool undertones, specifically blue and green and can swing WILDLY between them (although they are passive, I’m just being anal).

  • UNDERTONES: Big Chill has a blue undertone

Sherwin Williams Big Chill is my FAVE light neutral gray. Its blue undertone is PASSIVE and while in certain lights/situations it can lean that wink blue-green or blue-purple (it’s not fussy), it’s generally a pretty fab looking neutral gray.

Just look at how it changes with the lights on/off…lights on, lights off. Lights on…lights off. Wasn’t that a Muppets sketch? Anyway.

Ooooo, On the Rocks gives Big Chill a good run for its money! And while it CAN pick up any of the cool undertones, it tends to favour a vague purple.

In this next photo, On the Rocks was a GREAT choice as it connected with the undertones in the toss cushions, ottoman and flooring. Had we gone with a GREEN or blue undertone, it would’ve been hell on toast.

BENJAMIN MOORE CLIFFSIDE GRAY PM-5 / HC-180

  • LRV: 61.34
  • UNDERTONES: Cliffside Gray has a blue-green undertone

Now, because I only use photos from my E-Design clients, with the goal of showing you RELATEABLE, REAL HOMES, I don’t always have photos of the colors I want to share with you. Sometimes the photos that come in just aren’t clear enough to use! But, that doesn’t mean I don’t have some GREAT information, which is the case with Cliffside Gray.

I’m surprised Cliffside Gray isn’t talked about more and I think it’s more about its placement in the fan deck, rather than lack of popularity. Cliffside Gray is VERY SIMILAR to Benjamin Moore Stonington Gray (coming up next). The difference is that Cliffside has more green mixed with its blue undertone, making it just a TOUCH muddier.

Let’s take a quick break to talk about paint samples…

Undoubtedly, you’ll be heading out in the near future to grab paint samples – stop right there! I want you to check out SAMPLIZE. Samplize offers peel and stick paint samples that are more AFFORDABLE, EASIER and more ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY than traditional paint pots. Here are just a FEW reasons why I recommend Samplize to my clients…

  • Samples arrive ON YOUR DOORSTEP in 1-3 business days, depending on location
  • At $6.99, they’re more affordable than the samples pots/rollers/foam boards that are needing for traditional paint sampling
  • If you keep the samples on their white paper, you can move them around the room

Stonington Gray is wicked beautiful and seems to be THE gray that MOST people find to be pretty darned neutral…but as we know, it’s not.

SHERWIN WILLIAMS TINSMITH SW 7657

  • LRV: 57
  • UNDERTONES: Tinsmith has a blue undertone

Tinsmith is lovely and cool with its subtle blue undertone. In this next example, you’ll see how a warm cream color (the headboard) can enhance the undertones of a paint color more than normal, whereas a cleaner white could help them fall back…

Oh, I DO love Light French Gray. And while the lighter grays are definitely more popular, for those wanting a bit more depth and body on their walls, Light French Gray can be a STUNNING choice. It does favor a vague purple undertone. If you have north-facing light, you may see it swing a weee bit into a purple-blue undertone, whereas in south-facing or western light, it softens up REALLY nicely.

Platinum Gray is pretty friggin’ fantastic. It is a soft, medium depth gray with a very MINOR green undertone. Now, in the above photo, the carpet looks like its purple-toned, right? It’s not, it’s just the photo as the carpet has a LEGIT green undertone (it’s my own home).

Chelsea Gray has to be one of the most FAMILIAR names in the darker gray paint world. It’s been kickin’ it for quite some time simply because it’s SO friggin’ versatile! Whether it’s for kitchen cabinets and islands, bathroom vanities, accent walls, WHOLE ROOMS, exteriors or doors, Chelsea Gray seems to have it covered!

SHERWIN WILLIAMS CLASSIC FRENCH GRAY SW 0077

  • LRV: 24
  • UNDERTONES: Classic French Gray has a SUPER minor green undertone

Classic French Gray is an awesome option for exteriors, feature walls, kitchen cabinets and more, it’s all about making sure you like how it settles on your home re: its undertones and how they relate to the environment they’re in.

In this next example, Classic French Gray is the sample on the bottom right. Now, you could look at ANY OF THOSE GRAYS independent of each other on a white background and they could all look pretty darned gray, however, it’s often through COMPARISON that we see their true colors (pun intended).

Popular Grays that get listed as being REAL GRAYS (that ARE gorgeous) but don’t make the cut

  • Benjamin Moore Revere Pewter – warm gray with green undertones
  • Benjamin Moore Classic Gray – warm gray with purple undertones
  • Benjamin Moore Collingwood – warm gray with purple undertones
  • Sherwin Williams Passive – a whole WHACK of cool undertones in this bad boy
  • Sherwin Williams Repose Gray – its undertones swing WAY too much for me, although at times it can LOOK gray
  • Sherwin Williams Dovetail – it has a lovely warmth and while its undertones are passive, it’s the warmth that throws it for me

  1. Hi Kylie!

    You are a color genius for sure.
    My walls are Edgecomb Gray, such a pretty color but my brick house makes me see purple! I want to lighten up my north west facing room, but I’m afraid that Ballet White mighty actually turn pink!

      Hi Katie! Well, Ballet White has much more cream in it, and I don’t THINK it will do that, but sample sample sample!

  2. Grey goes well with so much. Has always been in decorating schemes. Just no big hoop-la until these past few years. And it will forever be an anchor in interior design. Trends are ongoing and cyclical—whether we like it or not. That being said, once you learn your undertones (which may be very difficult for some as perception is half the battle as you said lol) and you paint up a big ole poster board or buy from Samplize—you’ll know which paint color makes the cut. Move that bad boy all around the room. Paint up or buy multiples. Watch it morning, noon and night. You’ll be able to tell the winner. Process of elimination. I love all the backstory to color you gave. It’s such sound advice. Thank you.
    Color or absence of color is a very curious art form and I’m grateful to you for your clarity and humor. Oh how you make me laugh!!!!
    Greys are tough as you said. I’ve learned so much about undertones from you and others. And I still have so much more to learn. Understanding undertones- It is the basis of walking into your newly redone room(s) and audibly going “Ahhhhhh……”. Nailed it lol. Thanks so much for this post Kylie.

  3. My family room is Pale Oak. I am painting the dining room which is open to the living room. Choosing between Collingwood or Stonington Grey. What do you think.

      Author

      Hi Valerie! Without knowing your home or exposures, I would LEAN into Stonington GRay, just to see a more noticeable shift in colours 🙂

  4. Hi Kylie,
    Which Benjamin Moore grey do you recommend for the exterior that won’t look purple. We want to do white trim and stained wood garage doors and front door.

  5. Kylie – love your style ind insight. I am a graphic designer and love color.

    I am painting my family room Agreeable Gray with all trim and crown molding in Pure White. It’s a south facing room with a vaulted ceiling. Should I use the Pure White on ceiling, or might there be a better way to go?

    Thanks in advance for your time and response.

      Author

      Hi Geoff! I think that combo sounds great! I lean towards Pure White on the ceiling. We have a vaulted ceiling in our home too and I like the consistency of it. Also, if I ever change the walls, I don’t need to worry about painting the ceiling again. With it being so high up, I lean towards what’s good for the long haul :).

  6. Your blog is so helpful! We made the MAJOR mistake of painting the entire interior of our new home SW Grayish and it was PURPLE! Except the west facing rooms which were PINK! UGH. That was an expensive mistake to correct. Wish I had found your blog before that giant mistake! But I will tell you – every dime (and there were many, many, many dimes) paid to correct that was worth it! We went with SW Silver Strand and breathed a huge sigh of relief when we walked in!
    My question is, what is the gray color just above the SW Classic French Gray in the photo above of the exterior of the shingled home? That is the color I want for our garage door (which faces west). We painted the front doors (there are two) SW Copen Blue on our modern white brick farmhouse and absolutely love it!
    Thanks for all you do!

      Hi Erica! Yes, Grayish is a DOOZY! So, I think the colour you’re talking about is Sherwin Williams Stamped Concrete, which is a soft, medium-toned gray with a green-blue undertone 🙂

  7. Thank you so much for all of the comprehensive research you share so graciously. The visual comparisons are wonderful. I love white because the decorating options are wide open. My family loves color so I’m making baby steps here and there. I really have a hard time looking at a color card and visualizing it in my spaces. You have better reference pics as to what the colors look like in real rooms than the paint sites themselves have. So thank you for helping people like me. I’m a fan.

  8. Would you please make it more clear to me, if my windows face southwest, does it mean that the light I get through them is nortseast. Need to understand what undertones to choose not to get green undertone. My wood look tile is white grayish. Thanks

    1. Post
      Author

      Hi Maria! If your windows face Southwest, then the light you’re getting in the windows is southwestern light :).

  9. Hi-I have a painter coming in the morning and NO CLUE which paint color!!! I am stressing out! So it’s the family room which gets pretty good natural light. I have mindful gray all throughout the house in different areas and I like it, just don’t want it in that room too. Currently there is a beige (close to agreeable gray) in there now so I don’t want AG just because I want something different. I am down to REPOSE GRAY, ON THE ROCKS, PASSIVE, BIG CHILL, ESSENTIAL and LFGray but you might have me talked out of that. HELPPPPPP! I don’t want any purple showing at any time…an undertone of LIGHT blue I’m ok with and LIGHT green, I’m ok with too. Hopefully you see this in the next few hours 🙂

  10. Everyone thinks I’m crazy cause every color I choose I see green! (We also have floor to ceiling west facing windows-think mid century vibes)
    We have painted 4 times.
    I just want anything that won’t pull bile green from outside. Any suggestions? I’m this close to
    painting it all black lol

    1. Post
      Author

      Oooo, that’s a tough one to avoid. Generally, the more committed a paint color is to ‘neutral’ the more likely it is to pick up from its environment. The more COMMITTED it is to a particular undertone, the better chance you have of standing up to the green, but sometimes even that can’t beat it! I’d say, check out Sherwin Williams Alpaca and Popular Gray which cater to VIOLET and can help counteract the green. So can orange-beiges like Sherwin Williams Rivers Edge, but not everyone is this inclined (and if they DO grab green, it can be creepy).

      Other than that, you’d need to go dark so that your walls reflect less of the green light they’re given!

    2. I have the same issue. I painted Alabaster because it seemed to be the “safest” option. I was so wrong! I had 12 different whites on the walls and this one was bad, bad, bad. It looks like highlighter green/bile green (as you described) in the summer on sunny days 🙁 What did you decide to do?

      1. Post
        Author

        Ooo ya, some whites are definitely tougher than others – Alabaster is one I’m usually careful with, especially with the sun. Even though it doesn’t LIKE to show green, the odd time it can! The tough thing is, with sunny summer days, depending on your landscape and whether the natural light is grabbing some green reflection off that and throwing it on your walls, most whites will shift. Sure, some people will offset by painting a violet, pink or orange hue, but then you have to live with that color in the night and and when it’s not so sunny!

  11. Hi!! I’m hoping for some advice with a wall color that will help my carpet that is supposed to be a darker gray not look blue. 😵 I tried painting an accent wall, dark gray (iron ore) to help, but it hasn’t. I’m still struggling and so disappointed. The other walls are currently a light creamish color. We live in the PNW and our living room fave north. I would be forever grateful if you have time to offer any suggestions and help!💕
