Polo Tan vs RAL 150-3

Polo TanPPGvsRAL 150-3RAL EffectΔE 2.0Subtle difference

Where Polo Tan belongs to PPG's range, RAL 150-3 is a RAL Effect color. Both sit in the beige family, which is useful context if you're narrowing within a single hue direction. Polo Tan (LRV 80) reflects noticeably more light than RAL 150-3 (LRV 77), a difference of 3 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. At ΔE 2.0, these are close — the kind of difference that matters when choosing between them, but doesn't read strongly in a finished room. 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.
