Behr Paint Samples
Behr is a Home Depot exclusive, so the easiest way to test it is to grab samples while you are there or order them online. Swiss Coffee and Even Better Beige in particular look very different in warm vs. cool light, so test before you buy a gallon.
Behr samples are sold through The Home Depot — both small sample containers and, for many colors, peel-and-stick swatches.
Popular Behr Colors to Sample
These are the Behr shades people test most. Order a couple together and compare them on the wall.
How to Test a Behr Color
- Order your top two or three colors as peel-and-stick swatches or small sample pots.
- Put them on more than one wall — color shifts between a wall facing the sun and one in shade.
- Look at them in the morning and again at night under your lamps before deciding.
- Hold the winner next to your trim, floor, and big furniture, not just the bare wall.
- Once you choose, any paint store can mix that exact Behr color in the finish and size you need.
