Shimmering Sea vs RAL 650-6
Shimmering Sea (PPG) and RAL 650-6 (RAL Effect) come from different manufacturers. These are both blues, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within blue to land. The 3-point LRV gap — 8 for Shimmering Sea vs 5 for RAL 650-6 — means Shimmering Sea 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.
