Hypnotic Sea vs RAL 720-6
Where Hypnotic Sea belongs to PPG's range, RAL 720-6 is a RAL Effect color. These are both blues, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within blue to land. Hypnotic Sea (LRV 15) reflects noticeably more light than RAL 720-6 (LRV 12), a difference of 3 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. The ΔE 3.1 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
