RAL 210-6RAL EffectvsNavalSherwin-WilliamsΔE 68.4Very different colors

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.
