SantoCloverdale PaintvsRAL 110-2RAL EffectΔE 4.0Noticeable difference

Santo is a Cloverdale Paint color while RAL 110-2 comes from RAL Effect. Both sit in the greige-grey family, which is useful context if you're narrowing within a single hue direction. At LRV 72 vs 66, RAL 110-2 will read as the brighter of the two — a 6-point gap that matters most in north-facing or low-light rooms. At ΔE 4.0, the difference is perceptible but not dramatic — the two can work harmoniously in the same space. Below you'll find 4 real-room photo comparisons where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.

Santo vs RAL 110-2 in Real Spaces

4 real rooms side by side. Santo and RAL 110-2 are close enough that the difference can be hard to judge from a chip alone — these photos show how each reads at scale, across different spaces and lighting conditions.

Living Room

Living rooms test a color across a full range of conditions — morning sun, afternoon shade, and evening lamp light all shift how both of these read. RAL 110-2 has the edge in reflectance, which shows as a quiet sense of added space rather than an obvious contrast.

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.
