Kingston AquaPPGvsPale GreenRAL ClassicΔE 25.6Very different colors

Kingston Aqua is a PPG color while Pale Green comes from RAL Classic. Kingston Aqua reads as blue, while Pale Green reads as green — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. At LRV 46 vs 31, Kingston Aqua will read as the brighter of the two — a 15-point gap that matters most in north-facing or low-light rooms. At ΔE 25.6, these are genuinely distinct colors — a strong contrast if used together, or a meaningful choice between two different directions. 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.

Before committing to either color, test physical samples in your own space under the light you actually live with.
