Wilmington Spruce vs RAL 680-2
Where Wilmington Spruce belongs to Benjamin Moore's range, RAL 680-2 is a RAL Effect color. These are both blues, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within blue to land. Wilmington Spruce (LRV 26) reflects noticeably more light than RAL 680-2 (LRV 18), a difference of 7 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. The ΔE 4.0 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
