A match of Kelly Moore KM588-D Cafe Kahlua is a medium-deep warm brown with a muted golden-tan cast. It reads earthy rather than red, with moderate chroma and an overall subdued character. With an LRV of 26.92, it sits on the darker side of the midrange and tends to look grounded and solid rather than light or airy.
MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to the selected brand color can be a practical choice for mailboxes, downspouts, railings, PVC trim pieces, vent covers, switch plates, speaker grilles, shelf brackets, picture frames, hardware, and small furniture accents. The muted brown-gold tone works well on parts that need to coordinate with an existing painted reference while still reading clearly on metal, plastic, wood, or previously coated items after proper prep.
As a darker, moderately muted color, KM588-D Cafe Kahlua may show finish and substrate differences more than a very soft neutral would. Smooth surfaces usually reveal the warmer golden undertone more clearly, while rough or porous surfaces can make it appear deeper and slightly more subdued. Coverage is generally less demanding than with high-chroma colors, but surface prep, primer choice, and film build still affect the final reading.

Frequently Asked Questions About Match of Kelly Moore™ KM588-D Cafe Kahlua *
Will KM588-D Cafe Kahlua look the same in matte and gloss MyPerfectColor finishes?
No. The same KM588-D Cafe Kahlua color reference can read differently after application in matte, satin, or gloss because the finish changes how light reflects off the surface. If you need the coated part to coordinate with an existing item, confirm both the color reference and the sheen before you order.
How do I confirm KM588-D Cafe Kahlua before ordering a MyPerfectColor match?
Confirm KM588-D Cafe Kahlua from a physical swatch, a fan deck, or an existing painted item whenever possible. Screen images can shift the color, so MyPerfectColor should be matched to the original brand color reference you have verified, not to what the color looks like on a monitor.
Can I return KM588-D Cafe Kahlua custom-made paint if I choose the wrong sheen or quantity?
Custom-made orders for KM588-D Cafe Kahlua should be checked carefully before purchase because MyPerfectColor color matches are made to order and are not returnable or refundable. Confirm the color reference, product format, sheen, and amount you need before placing the order.
Can KM588-D Cafe Kahlua be used on plastic parts?
Yes, MyPerfectColor spray paint matched to KM588-D Cafe Kahlua can be used on many plastic parts, but plastics vary widely.
