Blue Promise vs RAL 610-3

Blue PromisePPGvsRAL 610-3RAL EffectΔE 2.8Subtle difference

Blue Promise (PPG) and RAL 610-3 (RAL Effect) come from different manufacturers. Both sit in the blue family, which is useful context if you're narrowing within a single hue direction. The 6-point LRV gap — 33 for Blue Promise vs 27 for RAL 610-3 — means Blue Promise will open up a space more effectively. A ΔE of 2.8 puts them in subtle territory — distinguishable in direct comparison, less so from across a room. Below, 5 simulated room previews show how each color reads at scale — real-room photos will be added as they become available.

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.
