Sweet Butter vs RAL 280-1
Where Sweet Butter belongs to Benjamin Moore's range, RAL 280-1 is a RAL Effect color. Both sit in the beige family, which is useful context if you're narrowing within a single hue direction. RAL 280-1 (LRV 75) reflects noticeably more light than Sweet Butter (LRV 70), a difference of 5 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. The ΔE 4.1 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
