Candy CornPPGvsRAL 440-2RAL EffectΔE 9.7Noticeable difference

Candy Corn (PPG) and RAL 440-2 (RAL Effect) come from different manufacturers. Both sit in the pink-red family, which is useful context if you're narrowing within a single hue direction. The 5-point LRV gap — 23 for Candy Corn vs 18 for RAL 440-2 — means Candy Corn will open up a space more effectively. ΔE 9.7 means they're clearly different, but not dramatically so — they'd pair well in the same room.

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.
