    I am looking for a color that looks the same regardless of the light.

    For example I am using c2 paint Luxe in my living room and Enoki in my dining room and I am looking for a nice transition color between the two.

    Lioness by C2 is too dark, Chai looks green after awhile and I don't like Palomino either.

    I thought I was on to something with White Raisin by Sherwin Williams, but that too looks green.

    I also looked at SW Blonde and it looks green as well. The same goes for SW Humble Gold, Harvester and Compatable Cream.

    I think I may be on to something with SW Dromedary Camel, but I would like to go a little lighter.
    Please can someone suggest a color that doesnot go green Confused

    Get the big poster board size chips of the C2 paint to help. I think you'll find that Enoki has green in it, but Chai is much more even toned.

    Thanks for the reply; can anyone give a color suggestion based upon their own experience, where they have used a gold color that doesn't go too gold?
