Electric Slide
What Electric Slide Actually Looks Like
Electric Slide lands squarely in yellow-green territory, bright and assertive without crossing into pure lime or chartreuse. It reads as a charged, almost citrus-adjacent green in most rooms, with enough yellow to feel warm and enough green to feel crisp at the same time. In strong natural light it practically hums off the wall. In dimmer rooms or at night under incandescent bulbs, it settles slightly but stays unmistakably vivid.
Electric Slide Undertones
The color is built on a yellow-green base, so both undertones are always present and working together. In cool north-facing rooms the green side becomes more prominent. In warm south or west light, the yellow pushes forward and the color can feel sunnier and more golden-green. There is no significant gray or brown in the mix, so it will not shift muddy under typical residential lighting.
Where Electric Slide Works Best
Electric Slide is an interior color and works best where you want deliberate, confident impact. An accent wall in a living room or dining room gives it room to make a statement without overwhelming the whole space. It is a natural fit for a home office where energy matters, a playroom, a mudroom, or any space where personality is the goal. Because it is bright and mid-toned, it can also work well on furniture or cabinetry as a pop of color against a neutral room.
Where to put Electric Slide
Electric Slide brings genuine energy to a workspace. Use it on one wall behind a desk or bookcase, and keep the remaining walls a clean white so the brightness reads as intentional rather than fatiguing.
A single wall in this color behind a sideboard or buffet creates real visual interest. Pair it with warm wood tones and neutral table linens to balance the intensity.
Utility rooms tolerate and even benefit from bold color. Electric Slide makes a mudroom feel cheerful and purposeful, and the bright value keeps the space from feeling closed in.
Kids rooms are exactly where a color this vivid belongs. It reads as fun and alive without being aggressive, and it holds up well as a full-room color when balanced with white trim.
If full-wall commitment feels like too much, a dresser, bookcase, or set of kitchen island cabinets in Electric Slide gives you the color payoff in a controlled, edited way.
What to Pair With Electric Slide
No Benjamin Moore coordinating colors were specified for Electric Slide 404, but the color pairs naturally with crisp whites, warm off-whites, soft warm grays, and deep charcoals or navies that let the yellow-green do the talking.

Colors that clash with Electric Slide
Electric Slide and cool blue-grays fight each other when they share a room. The yellow-green reads sour or jarring next to colors with a strong blue or gray base.
Warm red or pink tones in wood floors or upholstery can clash with the yellow-green, creating a color combination that feels unresolved.
At full saturation, Electric Slide on every wall can feel relentless in smaller or low-light rooms, even for people who love bold color.
Common questions
The Benjamin Moore code is 404. The LRV is 55.33, which puts it in a mid-range brightness, lighter than most deep accent colors but far from a pastel. The hex and RGB values are available in the color spec block on this page.
Electric Slide is listed as an interior color. Benjamin Moore typically offers interior colors across their standard finish lineup from flat through high-gloss. For a vivid saturated color like this one, a matte or eggshell finish softens the intensity slightly, while a satin or semi-gloss will amplify the brightness and make it feel more electric, especially on trim or cabinetry.
It can do both, but the choice depends on the room size, ceiling height, and how much natural light you have. In a large, well-lit room with high ceilings it holds up on all four walls. In a small or darker room, one accent wall is the smarter move.
Sherwin-Williams Lime Rickey (SW 6717) is a reasonable cross-brand comparison in the bright yellow-green family. Always swatch both colors in your specific room before deciding, as the undertone balance and exact saturation will differ.
