Surf Blue vs RAL 720-6
Surf Blue (Benjamin Moore) and RAL 720-6 (RAL Effect) come from different manufacturers. Both sit in the blue family, which is useful context if you're narrowing within a single hue direction. The 6-point LRV gap — 18 for Surf Blue vs 12 for RAL 720-6 — means Surf Blue will open up a space more effectively. A ΔE of 2.6 puts them in subtle territory — distinguishable in direct comparison, less so from across a room.

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.
