Comet vs RAL 180-1
Where Comet belongs to Benjamin Moore's range, RAL 180-1 is a RAL Effect color. Hue-wise, Comet belongs to the blue-grey family and RAL 180-1 to the blue family. RAL 180-1 (LRV 49) reflects noticeably more light than Comet (LRV 36), a difference of 12 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. The ΔE 9.5 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice. Below, 5 simulated room previews show how each color reads at scale — real-room photos will be added as they become available.

Comet vs RAL 180-1 Simulated Comparison
5 simulated room previews — drag the slider on each to see Comet on one side and RAL 180-1 on the other.
Digital color is approximate. These simulations are generated from the manufacturer's hex values and overlaid on grayscale room photos — your screen's calibration, brightness, and viewing angle all affect how they render. Before committing to either color, test physical samples in your own space under the light you actually live with.
