This sits close to white on the light meter but keeps its orange clearly enough to be picked out of a lineup of whites. Vista Paint lists it as Luminaria (8026).
72.0 on the light-reflectance scale puts it in the middle third, which is the part of the scale with the fewest surprises. At chroma 18.0 the orange is clear in daylight and softer under lamps.
The orange leans into warm light rather than fighting it, so this is a forgiving choice under standard incandescent or warm-LED bulbs. Light enough for whole-room coverage while still reading as a real color choice rather than a white. If a second wall color is wanted in the same room, Dunn-Edwards Clear Skies keeps the jump obvious rather than muddy (roughly 18.8 LRV points from this one).
Behr Shell Coral (230C-2) matches it closely enough that no one will tell them apart on a wall. This color reads consistently across most finishes, so the choice can come down to durability needs rather than how it changes the color.
It is lighter than 77 percent of the Vista Paint range. Vista Paint lists it in the K codes, alongside 1,318 other colors.
