All 147 Dunn-Edwards teal paint colors
Grouped by undertone (warm → cool)Hex values are display approximations from Dunn-Edwards's published swatch tools — not guaranteed to match a physical sample under controlled lighting. Order a brand-direct sample before specifying.
Dunn-Edwards is mixed to order, not sold off a shelf in a preset can. Every teal is tinted on demand at a Dunn-Edwards store, so you choose the color first and the paint is made for you. Stores are company-owned and limited to the West and Southwest: California, Arizona, Nevada, New Mexico, and Texas, not big-box or nationwide. Expect roughly $55 to $65 a gallon depending on the line.
Because the color is just a recipe, you can carry it across brands. Bring the name and code, like Turtle Lake (DE5704) or Ocean Oasis (DEA132), to another paint counter and they can color-match it into their own base. The same works in reverse: a teal you like from Kompozit's deck or any other US brand can be matched into a Dunn-Edwards base. Match by the look and the LRV, since a close number means the new mix will reflect light the same way on your wall.
Light to Dark
The whole Dunn-Edwards teal range by depth. LRV is the number to trust — the same teal looks two steps darker on a wall than on a chip.
LRV is the light reflectance value. A high number means the color bounces back more light and looks lighter on the wall; a low number means it drinks light and reads darker. In this teal slice the numbers run from 86 down to 6, so the same family can feel like a whisper or an anchor depending on what you pick.
For a bright, open room go high, in the 60s and up, like Seafoam (LRV 63) or Sweet Garden (DE5696, LRV 52). For a moody, wrapped feeling go low, like Stone Bridge (DE5747, LRV 14) or Ocean Oasis (DEA132, LRV 12). Caribbean Cruise (DE5760, LRV 28) and Armor (DE6306, LRV 22) sit in the rich middle, saturated but not pitch dark.
Dunn-Edwards Teals by Room
Each room page shows teal picks from every US brand side by side — Dunn-Edwards included — so you can compare in context.
Light teals work almost anywhere. Use Tinted Ice or Seafoam in a small bathroom, a north-facing bedroom, or a kitchen where you want color without losing brightness. They keep a space feeling clean and open.
Deeper teals reward rooms where you want depth and calm. Stone Bridge or Ocean Oasis make a strong dining room, a powder room, or an accent wall behind a bed. For trim, cabinets, or doors in any of these colors, the ARISTOSHIELD urethane-alkyd enamel gives a hard, smooth finish; SUPREMA is the low-VOC, GreenWise-certified choice for interior walls, and EVERSHIELD is built for exterior desert UV if the teal is going outside.

What Dunn-Edwards Teals Actually Look Like
Teal sits between blue and green, and Dunn-Edwards builds 89 of them in the Perfect Palette. That gives you a full run from pale, almost-white tints down to deep saltwater darks. The slice spans an LRV of 86 at the brightest, like Tinted Ice (DE5728), to 6 at the deepest end.
These colors are engineered for strong Western and desert light, so they hold their character under bright sun instead of washing out. Lighter picks like Seafoam (DE5695, LRV 63) read soft and airy, while a mid-tone like Turtle Lake (DE5704, LRV 40) shows the green-blue balance most people picture when they hear teal.
Pairing Teal with Trim, Ceiling, and Coordinating Colors
Teal loves a clean, warm white to keep it from going cold. Dunn-Edwards has well-known whites for exactly this: Swiss Coffee, Bone China, and Cottage White all make calm trim and ceiling partners that let the teal stay the star.
If you want a two-color scheme, pair a light teal wall with a deeper teal on a door or built-in for a tonal, layered look, for example Seafoam walls with Turtle Lake on a feature. To warm the whole room, bring in a soft wood tone or a sandy neutral so the blue-green reads inviting rather than icy.
The Questions Everyone Asks
how many teal paint colors does Dunn-Edwards have?
Dunn-Edwards has 89 colors in the teal family within its Perfect Palette. They range from very light tints to deep saltwater darks, with LRVs from 86 at the lightest down to 6 at the deepest.
what is the lightest and darkest teal in this slice?
The lightest is around Tinted Ice (DE5728) at an LRV of 86, which reads almost white with a cool cast. The darkest colors sit at an LRV of 6, with picks like Ocean Oasis (DEA132, LRV 12) and Stone Bridge (DE5747, LRV 14) giving deep, moody saltwater tones.
where can I buy Dunn-Edwards teal paint?
Dunn-Edwards is sold only through its own company-owned stores in California, Arizona, Nevada, New Mexico, and Texas. It is not in big-box stores and not available nationwide. Each color is tinted to order, so you pick the color and the paint is mixed for you, usually around $55 to $65 a gallon.
which Dunn-Edwards white goes with a teal wall?
Warm, clean whites work best so the teal does not read cold. Swiss Coffee, Bone China, and Cottage White are all good trim and ceiling partners that keep the teal as the main color.
can I get a Dunn-Edwards teal matched at another brand?
Yes. The color is just a recipe, so bring the name and code, such as Turtle Lake (DE5704), to any paint counter and they can match it into their own base. The same works in reverse, including matching a Kompozit teal into a Dunn-Edwards base. For the closest result, match by both the look and the LRV.
what finish should I use for teal cabinets or doors?
For trim, cabinets, and doors, ARISTOSHIELD is the urethane-alkyd enamel that dries hard and smooth. For interior walls use SUPREMA, the low-VOC GreenWise-certified line, and for exterior teal use EVERSHIELD, which is built for strong desert UV.
