washiness
Lacking color intensity
The quality of being watery, weak, or diluted.
Washiness describes something lacking intensity or substance—the washiness of overbrewed tea, the washiness of pale watercolors.
It extends to weak expression or feeble character: The washiness of his arguments convinced no one.
