The 7 Best Gray Paint Colors for Every Home

Repainting is one of the easiest ways to give your space a new life. However, choosing a paint color can be daunting. There are so many shades and they all look the same on that teeny paint chip at the store. Gray continues to be one of the most popular paint colors time and time again. If you’re looking for gray shades to dazzle your space, here are my favorite gray paint colors (all by Benjamin Moore.)

1. Gray Owl

This is a beautiful light gray. It is one of Benjamin Moore’s most popular gray shades (and for good reason!) Do take note that it does have some green undertones and in some lighting can appear green.

2. Classic Gray

As its name suggests, this is the perfect neutral and will work almost anywhere.

3. Shoreline

The perfect light neutral gray.

4. Stonington Gray

A beautiful medium, cool gray

5. Silver Satin

If you’re looking for a light gray, look no further. Silver Satin is a very soft white-gray color that works almost anywhere!

6. Rockport Gray

This is a deep gray and adds a touch of drama.

7. Boothbay Gray

This is more of a blue-gray.

So there you have it folks, my top picks for gray paint. My best advice to you when choosing paint colors is to sample, sample, sample! Because paint looks different depending on the lighting in the room, you want to test in your space before you commit and paint the whole room. You can either buy sample pots or my preferred method-Samplize. These are 12 x 12 stickers that you can stick directly onto your wall to get a feel for how the color will look in your space.
