A medium, muted cool gray, Vermont Slate carries evenly balanced undertones and a distinctly quiet presence. With an LRV of 32, it adds character to a space without overpowering it, working well in home offices, mudrooms, and powder rooms. The closest cross-brand match is Vista Paint's Vermont Slate, a near-identical match. Kilz's Kettle Black is another strong alternative.
