Common questions

How many red paint colors does Benjamin Moore have?

Benjamin Moore publishes 289 red paint colors in the palettes it makes available, and all of them are listed on this page with their color code, hex value, RGB, Light Reflectance Value and undertone.

What is the paint code for a red color on this page?

Every swatch shows its manufacturer code beneath the name - Benjamin Moore Angel Pink is 2007-70, for example. That code is what a store mixes from, and it is unique to its brand: the same code at another manufacturer is an unrelated color.

Which Benjamin Moore red paint colors suit a dark room?

The ones with a high Light Reflectance Value, which is the percentage of light a color reflects. These red colors run from LRV 3.7 (Benjamin Moore Classic Burgundy) to LRV 80.9 (Benjamin Moore Angel Pink); above 60 keeps a room bright, below 30 reads as a deep color and absorbs the light a dark room has left.

Are these red paint colors warm or cool?

Both - 289 of the 289 are warm and 0 are cool, with the rest neutral. The label is computed from each color's hue angle and chroma in CIE L*a*b*, not from its name, so it can be compared across brands. Warm red suits north-facing rooms, cool red suits rooms that already get strong afternoon light.
