RAL 180-5 vs G358
RAL 180-5 (RAL Effect) and G358 (Tikkurila) 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 4-point LRV gap — 72 for G358 vs 68 for RAL 180-5 — means G358 will open up a space more effectively. A ΔE of 2.1 puts them in subtle territory — distinguishable in direct comparison, less so from across a room.
