Pacific Rim vs RAL 750-3
Where Pacific Rim belongs to Benjamin Moore's range, RAL 750-3 is a RAL Effect color. Pacific Rim reads as blue, while RAL 750-3 reads as green — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Pacific Rim (LRV 19) reflects noticeably more light than RAL 750-3 (LRV 12), a difference of 7 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. With a ΔE of 11.3, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question. Below, 5 simulated room previews show how each color reads at scale — real-room photos will be added as they become available.

Pacific Rim vs RAL 750-3 Simulated Comparison
5 simulated room previews — drag the slider on each to see Pacific Rim on one side and RAL 750-3 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.
