Fuchsine vs RAL 470-5
Where Fuchsine belongs to Benjamin Moore's range, RAL 470-5 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. Fuchsine (LRV 12) reflects noticeably more light than RAL 470-5 (LRV 10), a difference of 3 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. The ΔE 3.4 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.

Fuchsine vs RAL 470-5 Simulated Comparison
5 simulated room previews — drag the slider on each to see Fuchsine on one side and RAL 470-5 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.
