Royal Lilac vs RAL 570-M

Royal LilacPPGvsRAL 570-MRAL EffectΔE 9.4Noticeable difference

Where Royal Lilac belongs to PPG's range, RAL 570-M is a RAL Effect color. Royal Lilac reads as purple, while RAL 570-M reads as blue-purple — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. They have nearly identical light reflectance values (15 vs 13), so they'll read as similarly Dark in most lighting conditions. The ΔE 9.4 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice. 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.
