Classic Blue vs RAL 180-1
Where Classic Blue belongs to Jotun's range, RAL 180-1 is a RAL Effect color. Both sit in the blue family, which is useful context if you're narrowing within a single hue direction. Classic Blue (LRV 52) reflects noticeably more light than RAL 180-1 (LRV 49), a difference of 3 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. At ΔE 2.8, these are close — the kind of difference that matters when choosing between them, but doesn't read strongly in a finished room.
