What color is Sherwin Williams Dishy Coral?
Sherwin Williams Dishy Coral SW 6598 is a light, warm coral pink with a softened red base and a gentle peach cast. Its moderate saturation keeps it from reading overly sweet, giving walls a clear but not overwhelming wash of color. In bright natural light, Dishy Coral looks fresher and more distinctly coral, while evening lighting can draw out its rosier side. It suits powder rooms, bedrooms, breakfast nooks, and painted furniture where a warm color can take center stage. Pair it with creamy white trim, pale oak, woven natural fibers, or muted blue-green accents for contrast.

LRV of Dishy Coral
Dishy Coral has an LRV of 40.25% and refers to Light Medium colors that reflect half 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 40.25%, 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.
