| Help! I need to find a light gray that doesn’t lean blue or purple. I don’t intend to color match so it has to be in fro SW. I’m pulling my hair out over undertones. Lol! |

| I like Analytical Grey, which has a lot of warmth and green tones, if you may lean in that direction vs blue/purple? |

| We had Agreeable Gray in our last house and Repose Gray in our new house and didn't find them to have those undertones. |

Agreeable gray.
Whites are more popular though. I'd suggest snowbound or Alabaster |

| We love Agreeable Gray and a Worldly Gray. Worldly is a bit more taupe than Agreeable is. |

We have the BM version (Alaskan Husky) in our bathrooms and it's supposed to be ever so slightly green, but it reads cool and pure grey on the walls. I was aiming for the slight green tint but I'm actually glad I misjudged it. |

| It's going to greatly depend on your house. A gray can look like a true gray in one house but pick up undertones in a different house with different lighting. I recently painted my family room gray and I bought several samples and painted a swatch on each wall. Some colors looked great on one wall but not on another. I finally settled on Lazy Gray and I love it. |

| Try kylieminteriors.ca for tons of advice on specfic SW colors and how they perform IRL (undertones, LRV, etc.). There are a lot of blog articles on the site that deal with gray paint shades. |
