What color is Behr Mango Tango?
Behr Mango Tango P240-4 is a light, warm peach with a creamy orange cast and a sunny yellow undertone. Its moderate softness keeps it from reading as a sharp citrus color, giving walls a gently glowing, apricot-like appearance. In direct afternoon sun, Mango Tango can look brighter and more golden, while lower or cooler light brings out its muted peach side. It suits kitchens, breakfast nooks, children’s rooms, and powder rooms where a warm color can feel cheerful without becoming heavy. Pair it with warm white trim, natural oak, woven rattan, or pale terracotta accents for a layered, earthy palette.

LRV of Mango Tango
Mango Tango has an LRV of 63.11% and refers to Light colors that reflect most of the incident light. Why LRV is important?
Light Reflectance Value measures the amount of visible and usable light that reflects from a painted surface.
Simply put, the higher the LRV of a paint color, the brighter the room you will get.
The scale goes from 0% (absolute black, absorbing all light) to 100% (pure white, reflecting all light).
Act like a pro: When choosing paint with an LRV of 63.11%, pay attention to your bulbs' brightness. Light brightness is measured in lumens. The lower the paint's LRV, the higher lumen level you need. Every square foot of room needs at least 40 lumens. That means for a 200 ft2 living room you'll need about 8000 lumens of light – e.g., eight 1000 lm bulbs.
