Fossil vs RAL 120-4
Fossil (Benjamin Moore) and RAL 120-4 (RAL Effect) come from different manufacturers. Fossil reads as beige-greige, while RAL 120-4 reads as beige — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. The 4-point LRV gap — 76 for RAL 120-4 vs 72 for Fossil — means RAL 120-4 will open up a space more effectively. A ΔE of 2.1 puts them in subtle territory — distinguishable in direct comparison, less so from across a room. Below you'll find 1 real-room photo comparison where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.
Fossil vs RAL 120-4 in Real Spaces
1 real room side by side. Fossil and RAL 120-4 are close enough that the difference can be hard to judge from a chip alone — these photos show how each reads at scale, across different spaces and lighting conditions.
Kitchen Cabinets
Cabinet color is always seen in context — against countertops, backsplash, and hardware — which amplifies undertone differences that might disappear on a plain wall. RAL 120-4 has the edge in reflectance, which shows as a quiet sense of added space rather than an obvious contrast.

Fossil vs RAL 120-4 Simulated Comparison
5 simulated room previews — drag the slider on each to see Fossil on one side and RAL 120-4 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.
