Jicama vs RAL 140-3 paint color comparison

Jicama vs RAL 140-3

JicamaBenjamin MoorevsRAL 140-3RAL EffectΔE 3.5Noticeable difference

Jicama is a Benjamin Moore color while RAL 140-3 comes from RAL Effect. These are both beiges, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within beige to land. At LRV 80 vs 72, RAL 140-3 will read as the brighter of the two — a 8-point gap that matters most in north-facing or low-light rooms. At ΔE 3.5, the difference is perceptible but not dramatic — the two can work harmoniously in the same space. Below, 5 simulated room previews show how each color reads at scale — real-room photos will be added as they become available.

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.
