All 257 Valspar blue paint colors
Grouped by undertone (warm → cool)Hex values are display approximations from Valspar's published swatch tools — not guaranteed to match a physical sample under controlled lighting. Order a brand-direct sample before specifying.
Every color here is mixed to order. You take the name and code to a Lowe's or Ace Hardware paint counter, they tint a base to match, and you can put any of these 242 blues into the line you want. There is no separate stock of pre-made blue cans — the color is made when you buy it.
Valspar's main lines are Ultra, Signature (around $40 a gallon, with ScuffShield), and Reserve (around $52, anti-microbial). The same blue color can go into any of them, so choose the color first, then pick the line that fits the room and your budget. Order a brand-direct sample before committing — screen and chip colors are approximations, and the real swatch under your own light is the only reliable test.
Light to Dark
The whole Valspar blue range by depth. LRV is the number to trust — the same blue looks two steps darker on a wall than on a chip.
LRV is light reflectance value — how much light a color bounces back, on a scale of 0 (black) to 100 (white). This blue slice runs from LRV 3.1 at the darkest down to 70.7 at the lightest, so it covers nearly the whole usable range. The single number tells you how light or dark a color will actually feel on the wall before you commit.
For bright, open rooms, stay high: Summer Breeze (70.7) and Perfectly Blue (58.3) keep a space feeling open. Mid-range picks like Fairies in America (P111, LRV 50.1) and Wings of Pegasus (V073-3, LRV 42.3) give you real color while still reflecting decent light. Drop into Peyton (8002-45E, LRV 19), Biro Blue (8001-43G, LRV 12), or Cravin' Cobalt (LRV 7.5) only where you want depth and have enough light to support it.
Valspar Blues by Room
Each room page shows blue picks from every US brand side by side — Valspar included — so you can compare in context.
Light blues like Summer Breeze and Perfectly Blue are easy bedroom, bathroom, and laundry-room colors — calm, clean, and forgiving in changing daylight. A mid-tone such as Versatile Blue (M348, LRV 29.9) is a strong choice for an accent wall, a kitchen island, or a built-in where you want color without darkening the whole room.
The deep blues earn their place on cabinets, a dining-room wall, a powder room, or a front door. Cravin' Cobalt and Biro Blue carry enough saturation to feel intentional on millwork and trim-heavy surfaces, where dark color tends to look best.

The Character of Valspar's Blues
Valspar is best known for warm, livable neutrals and greens, and that same easygoing temperament carries into its blues. Across the 242 blue colors in the deck, you get the full range — soft sky tints like Summer Breeze (4008-7A), true mid-tones like Versatile Blue (M348), and deep, near-navy anchors like Cravin' Cobalt (V071-6).
These are blues meant to live in a real home, not a paint chip. The lighter end leans airy and a touch gray, while the darker end reads rich without going harsh. That makes the family flexible whether you want a quiet backdrop or a saturated feature wall.
Pairing With Trim, Ceiling, and Coordinating Colors
Blue is one of the safest families to pair because it sits next to Valspar's strength: warm, livable neutrals. A soft blue wall reads crisp against a clean white trim and ceiling, while warm off-whites and Valspar's well-known neutrals like Safari Beige or Gray Silt soften the contrast for a cozier room.
For a darker blue, let it carry the room and keep everything else quiet — white or warm-white trim, a simple ceiling, and natural wood or brass for warmth. If you want a second color, a muted green or a warm gray coordinates with these blues without competing.
The Questions Everyone Asks
What is the most popular Valspar blue paint color?
Twilight Mist (4004-9B) — Soft blue-gray; Valspar's Wedgewood Gray equivalent for bedrooms. Encore round out the short list most people choose from.
what undertones do Valspar's blue paint colors have?
They span the family. Lighter picks like Summer Breeze lean soft and slightly gray, mid-tones like Versatile Blue read as true, balanced blue, and the deepest colors like Cravin' Cobalt go rich and saturated. Valspar's overall reputation is warm and livable, so even the cooler blues tend to feel easy in a home rather than icy.
which Valspar blue is best for a small or dark room?
Stay toward the high end of the LRV range. Summer Breeze (LRV 70.7) and Perfectly Blue (LRV 58.3) reflect the most light and keep a tight space feeling open. Save deep colors like Biro Blue (LRV 12) or Cravin' Cobalt (LRV 7.5) for rooms with strong natural light or for accents like a door or cabinet.
where can I buy Valspar blue paint?
Valspar is sold at Lowe's and Ace Hardware. Bring the color name and code to the paint counter and they mix it to order in the line you choose — Ultra, Signature, or Reserve. Nothing is pre-mixed; your gallon is tinted when you buy it.
what trim and ceiling color goes with a Valspar blue wall?
A clean white trim and ceiling make any of these blues look crisp. For a warmer feel, pair a soft blue with a warm off-white or one of Valspar's livable neutrals like Safari Beige. With a darker blue, keep the trim and ceiling simple and let the blue lead.
can I match a Valspar blue to another brand?
Yes. Click any swatch on this page to see how that Valspar blue cross-matches across the other US brands and the featured Kompozit deck. Matching works in both directions, so you can also bring a color you like from another brand to a Lowe's counter and have it mixed in a Valspar line.
are Valspar and Pratt & Lambert related?
They are sibling brands. Both Valspar and Pratt & Lambert are owned by Sherwin-Williams, so they share a parent company but remain separate lines with their own decks. One did not absorb the other.
