RAL 370-1 vs Nasturtium
Where RAL 370-1 belongs to RAL Effect's range, Nasturtium is a Sherwin-Williams color. These are both beiges, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within beige to land. They have nearly identical light reflectance values (49 vs 50), so they'll read as similarly Medium in most lighting conditions. The ΔE 6.5 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
