I had three samples, Dolphin Fin, Rhino by Behr (which I also love) and I color matched Oyster Bay by Sherwin Williams. Home Depot can also color match a sample for you. Make sure you get samples too, even if you are just painting something small like a door. I didn’t mind it, but knew it wasn’t love at first sight. Some of my interior doors were previously Nature’s Reflection by Behr and while I loved that color on my front door, for some reason it was too much for me inside. I got the urge to repaint some of my doors in my home and since my walls were Silver Drop, why not stay in the family and go with Dolphin Fin on my doors. Now, paint colors do not have to be on walls only. There is something about a warm gray paint color and brass accents. It’s also one of those colors that can pair well with warm colors and cool colors. There’s a very good chance this color will be painted in our master bath and in the kid’s bathroom. This color would be perfect in a bedroom or bathroom since it is so calming. But I will tell you that to my (untrained) eyes, Dolphin Fin is a soft gray with blue undertones. I’m not going to tell you what number Dolphin Fin is on some color scale thingy majiggy. Let me also say that I am not a paint expert, I am not a real designer. Honestly, the colors on this paint swatch are all just perfect in my opinion. Irish Mist has warm undertones and almost looks like a light greige.

I also like to look at the lightest color on the swatch to get more of an idea of what I am in for when I paint any room. I was able to tell from this swatch that Silver Drop might have a blue undertone since Dolphin Fin has some blue in it. The darkest color on the paint swatch will show you what undertones you might find in the lighter colors. When looking for a paint color I always look at the other colors on the paint swatch. A very modern gray color would look odd in my home. The bones of my home are very traditional. I jumped on the gray bandwagon when we moved into this house just a few years ago, but I knew I didn’t want a cool gray. I like the soft grays with warm undertones. Some grays are cool and some grays are warm. Most gray paints have sneaky undertones that can make or break the paint. There are thousands of gray paints out there…at every store. It’s like trying to find a needle in a gray haystack. If you ever tried to pick a gray paint color then you know exactly what I am talking about. Ok, maybe I am being a bit dramatic but I’m really not joking here. Picking the perfect gray paint can be one of the most difficult things you can do. I’ve been doing some research on Dolphin Fin and every article I read is singing it’s praise about being the perfect gray. On the paint swatch Dolphin Fin is a shade darker than Silver Drop and looks to have more gray in it. This post is all about Silver Drop’s older brother, Dolphin Fin. You can read more about Silver Drop by Behr here It surprises you everytime you paint a room with it.

That’s when you know you found a perfect paint color. It’s a barely there gray that has a blue-ish undertone and looks good and different in every room. I painted by whole house Silver Drop by Behr. A few months ago, I talked about Silver Drop by Behr and how I think it’s the prettiest color. Here I am again, giving yet another Behr paint color it’s own shout out (or blog post).
