Told the guy in the hardware store that I didn’t want to bother with a lot of color decisions, I’d just paint the inside of my house white. He sighed and showed me a whole page of various shades of “white”
There’s a popular new brilliant red called “Period”. I’m not kidding. And yes, it’s “Period” as in a lady’s period. Made to order for this situation, yes?
Some years ago (OK, many), I had a candy-apple red 1959 Impala, along with many hot-rod type custom add-ons. Attractive young women would try to flag me down in the street, begging for a ride. They don’t seem to do that any more, for some reason. Probably because my car is different or something.

Ooh… Go with “Candy Apple Red”. It’s still dark enough to look bloody, but bright enough to be seen from a distance.

We went for “Oxblood” … which still gives me the squeams if I think about it.

Go with Candy Apple Red as the other colour always looks darker when it dries

Either one is good as long as you use the right throw cushions…

Candy Apple Red for a car but not inside my home. Candy Apple Root Beer is awesome as well.

Blood of my enemies for sure. What better to get you up, moving, and motivated for a new day?

For the trim, I’d go with the White Horse of Death in a semigloss.

Do you have a color that screams,“…hear the lamentations of their women!!”?

Neither one… For vikings, we recommend “Red Sails in the Sunset.”

I kind of like the glowing pit of hell red.

You can bring in some of the actual blood of your enemies, and they can scan it, to get the color just right.
