Mexicali Red presents as a deep, saturated warm red with sun-kissed undertones and a striking mood. With an LRV of 24, it makes a powerful statement on feature walls, kitchen islands, and exterior doors. For a cross-brand equivalent, Behr's No More Drama is a near-identical match. Vista Paint's Velvet Cake runs close as well. Try it alongside a cool-toned accent to create visual balance, or lean into warmth with natural wood tones.
