How they read
In their own wordsLotus Flower SW 6310 is a soft pink in Sherwin-Williams' red family, rated for interior and exterior use. Compositepaint.com describes a warm red undertone that reads as a rosy pink, with an LRV of 57.
Pink Cloud is the lightest pink in the library — at LRV 80 it is closer to a tinted white than a color, a peach-blush so faint it reads as warmth rather than pink until you see it beside a true white. It is gentle, luminous and impossible to overdo.
