Waterloo vs RAL 610-5
Waterloo is a Benjamin Moore color while RAL 610-5 comes from RAL Effect. These are both blues, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within blue to land. At LRV 28 vs 16, Waterloo will read as the brighter of the two — a 12-point gap that matters most in north-facing or low-light rooms. At ΔE 9.2, the difference is perceptible but not dramatic — the two can work harmoniously in the same space.
