What color is Behr Whip Lash?

Behr Whip Lash P150-6 is a medium-deep red with a softened, slightly earthy cast rather than a bright primary-red look. Its #c74547 value gives it clear color presence, making it especially effective on a front door, dining room wall, powder room, or painted accent furniture. In strong daylight, Whip Lash reads as a lively red, while lower or warmer lighting can bring out its deeper, more grounded side. Pair it with creamy off-whites, charcoal, black metal, natural oak, or warm brass for contrast that keeps the red from feeling overly sharp.

LRV of Whip Lash

Whip Lash has an LRV of 15.18% and refers to Medium Dark which means that this color reflects very little light. Why LRV is important?

Light Reflectance Value scale illustration

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 15.18%, 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.
