Opal Fire vs RAL 430-2
Opal Fire (PPG) and RAL 430-2 (RAL Effect) come from different manufacturers. These are both pink-reds, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within pink-red to land. The 4-point LRV gap — 44 for RAL 430-2 vs 40 for Opal Fire — means RAL 430-2 will open up a space more effectively. ΔE 5.6 means they're clearly different, but not dramatically so — they'd pair well in the same room. Below, 5 simulated room previews show how each color reads at scale — real-room photos will be added as they become available.
