Plantain Chips vs RAL 270-M
Where Plantain Chips belongs to Behr's range, RAL 270-M is a RAL Effect color. These are both beiges, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within beige to land. Plantain Chips (LRV 40) reflects noticeably more light than RAL 270-M (LRV 32), a difference of 8 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. The ΔE 8.1 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
