Mid Grey / Neutral Grey / 18% Grey / Munsell N5
Grey Paint is a spectrally neutral paint that you apply to the walls around your screens. This way you can be sure that you perceive colors correctly.
We mix an equal composition of every color in the color spectrum, exactly halfway between pure black and pure white, and that's a pretty close call.
Together with the extra matt finish, the medium grey paint provides a neutral and minimal reflection. Indispensable in colour grading suites, museums, home cinemas, etc.

Seriously, colourpick now!
Our optical system is amazingly adaptive. Your brain compensates for color to a white balance. If there is a lot of blue in your field of vision, your brain balances this by adding the opposite color. This makes the block in the blue area appear grayer than it actually is.
Imagine that dot is your calibrated monitor. That's why those skin tones look so unhealthy!
Whether you work in film, photography or graphics, you will only deliver the best results if you perceive colours correctly. A neutral working environment takes your work to the next level.

The recipe
Grey Paint was created through a lot of mixing, testing and tweaking with the help of a specialist colour lab.
The result: the L*a*b* values are better balanced than those of the best-selling gray card!
Each order is freshly mixed, tested and only shipped if the color matches our reference.
We re-test each new batch of base paint in the lab. This way we know for sure that Grey Paint is always a perfect mid-grey.
