RAL 190-M vs Wave
Where RAL 190-M belongs to RAL Effect's range, Wave is a Tikkurila color. Both sit in the blue family, which is useful context if you're narrowing within a single hue direction. Wave (LRV 49) reflects noticeably more light than RAL 190-M (LRV 40), a difference of 9 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. The ΔE 6.8 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
