Mysterious vs Cement grey

MysteriousPPGvsCement greyRAL ClassicΔE 18.6Distinct difference

Mysterious is a PPG color while Cement grey comes from RAL Classic. Mysterious reads as blue-grey, while Cement grey reads as grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. At LRV 24 vs 11, Cement grey will read as the brighter of the two — a 13-point gap that matters most in north-facing or low-light rooms. At ΔE 18.6, 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.
