Coral Fountain vs RAL 420-1
Where Coral Fountain belongs to Behr's range, RAL 420-1 is a RAL Effect color. These are both pink-reds, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within pink-red to land. RAL 420-1 (LRV 52) reflects noticeably more light than Coral Fountain (LRV 49), a difference of 3 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. The ΔE 7.7 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
