Zinc yellow vs RAL 110-1
Zinc yellow (RAL Classic) and RAL 110-1 (RAL Effect) come from different manufacturers. The 16-point LRV gap — 80 for RAL 110-1 vs 64 for Zinc yellow — means RAL 110-1 will open up a space more effectively.

Zinc yellow vs RAL 110-1 Color Comparison
Digital color is approximate. These simulations are generated from the manufacturer's hex values and overlaid on grayscale room photos — your screen's calibration, brightness, and viewing angle all affect how they render. Before committing to either color, test physical samples in your own space under the light you actually live with.
