Salmon Pink vs Coral Bead
Where Salmon Pink belongs to PPG's range, Coral Bead is a Sherwin-Williams color. These are both pink-reds, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within pink-red to land. Salmon Pink (LRV 47) reflects noticeably more light than Coral Bead (LRV 44), a difference of 3 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. The ΔE 3.2 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
