High Sierra vs RAL 180-5
High Sierra (PPG) and RAL 180-5 (RAL Effect) come from different manufacturers. These are both blues, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within blue to land. The 4-point LRV gap — 72 for High Sierra vs 68 for RAL 180-5 — means High Sierra will open up a space more effectively. A ΔE of 2.2 puts them in subtle territory — distinguishable in direct comparison, less so from across a room.
