Acapulco Sun vs Pastel yellow
Where Acapulco Sun belongs to Behr's range, Pastel yellow is a RAL Classic color. Acapulco Sun reads as beige, while Pastel yellow reads as beige-yellow — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Pastel yellow (LRV 44) reflects noticeably more light than Acapulco Sun (LRV 35), a difference of 9 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. The ΔE 9.9 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
