SugarCloverdale PaintvsRAL 110-2RAL EffectΔE 4.6Noticeable difference

Where Sugar belongs to Cloverdale Paint's range, RAL 110-2 is a RAL Effect color. Hue-wise, Sugar belongs to the beige-greige family and RAL 110-2 to the greige-grey family. Sugar (LRV 82) reflects noticeably more light than RAL 110-2 (LRV 72), a difference of 10 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. The ΔE 4.6 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice. Below you'll find 4 real-room photo comparisons where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.

Sugar vs RAL 110-2 in Real Spaces

4 real rooms side by side. Sugar 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

In a living room, color works across both daylight and evening light — the same wall can read very differently at noon and at 8pm. The LRV gap is large enough that Sugar will make the room feel meaningfully brighter than RAL 110-2 would.

Digital color is approximate.

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