Mystic BluePPGvsCement greyRAL ClassicΔE 39.5Very different colors

Mystic Blue (PPG) and Cement grey (RAL Classic) come from different manufacturers. Hue-wise, Mystic Blue belongs to the blue family and Cement grey to the grey family. The 12-point LRV gap — 36 for Mystic Blue vs 24 for Cement grey — means Mystic Blue will open up a space more effectively. A ΔE of 39.5 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives.

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.
