Silver Mauve vs RAL 550-1
Silver Mauve (PPG) and RAL 550-1 (RAL Effect) come from different manufacturers. Both sit in the pink family, which is useful context if you're narrowing within a single hue direction. The 4-point LRV gap — 67 for RAL 550-1 vs 63 for Silver Mauve — means RAL 550-1 will open up a space more effectively. A ΔE of 1.9 puts them in subtle territory — distinguishable in direct comparison, less so from across a room.
