MarshmallowCloverdale PaintvsRAL 210-3RAL EffectΔE 1.8Subtle difference

Marshmallow is a Cloverdale Paint color while RAL 210-3 comes from RAL Effect. These are both beige-greiges, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within beige-greige to land. At LRV 80 vs 76, Marshmallow will read as the brighter of the two — a 3-point gap that matters most in north-facing or low-light rooms. With a ΔE of 1.8, the difference is subtle — you'd need them side by side to reliably tell them apart. Below you'll find 3 real-room photo comparisons where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.

Digital color is approximate.

Before committing to either color, test physical samples in your own space under the light you actually live with.
