About Tomato Tango
Tomato Tango (CSP-1145) is a very dark, bold red from Benjamin Moore that leans pink. With an LRV of 15, Tomato Tango absorbs most light. It creates a dramatic, enveloping look and suits accent walls, cabinetry and well-lit rooms.
In north-facing rooms the cool daylight tones down Tomato Tango's warmth, so it can read a little grayer; south- and west-facing light brings the warmth forward. It's a good fit for accent walls, front doors, cabinetry and powder rooms. Next to Cornwallis Red (CW-315), it's warmer and more colorful.
