What color is Dulux Polar Flame 6?

Dulux Polar Flame 6 19YY 83/140 is a very light, warm cream with a noticeable peach-apricot cast. Its high brightness keeps it airy on broad walls, while the soft color content prevents it from reading as plain white. In daylight, Polar Flame 6 can look like a pale sun-warmed neutral; under warm artificial light, its peach undertone is likely to become more apparent. It suits bedrooms, dining rooms, and living areas where a gentle warmth is wanted without a dark or heavily saturated finish. Pair it with chalky white trim, honey-toned timber, natural linen, or muted terracotta and clay accents for a cohesive palette.
