Tangerine Melt vs RAL 390-1
Where Tangerine Melt belongs to Benjamin Moore's range, RAL 390-1 is a RAL Effect color. Tangerine Melt reads as beige, while RAL 390-1 reads as beige-pink — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Tangerine Melt (LRV 35) reflects noticeably more light than RAL 390-1 (LRV 29), a difference of 5 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. The ΔE 4.8 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.

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.
