Silver Bullet
Silver Bullet is a grey paint color from Behr, but its character reaches beyond a single label. Its neutral temperature leaves room for surrounding materials and light to pull the color warmer or cooler. Treat the digital swatch as an opening note, then watch a physical sample from morning light through evening lamps.
