Pink Ruffle vs RAL 470-1
Pink Ruffle (Benjamin Moore) and RAL 470-1 (RAL Effect) come from different manufacturers. Both sit in the pink-red family, which is useful context if you're narrowing within a single hue direction. The 3-point LRV gap — 57 for RAL 470-1 vs 54 for Pink Ruffle — means RAL 470-1 will open up a space more effectively. A ΔE of 2.5 puts them in subtle territory — distinguishable in direct comparison, less so from across a room.
