What color is Benjamin Moore Sunlit Coral?
Benjamin Moore Sunlit Coral 2170-60 is a very light peach-coral with a soft blush-pink cast rather than a strong orange presence. Its high value keeps it airy on broad walls, while the warm undertone adds more color than a typical off-white. In daylight, it reads as a clean, pale coral; under warmer bulbs, the peach and pink notes become more noticeable. Try it in a powder room, bedroom, breakfast nook, or on a ceiling where a faint wash of warmth is welcome. Sunlit Coral pairs well with creamy whites, pale oak, natural linen, and muted sage or dusty blue accents for gentle contrast.

LRV of Sunlit Coral
Sunlit Coral has an LRV of 74.14% and refers to Off‑White colors that reflect a lot of 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 74.14%, 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.
