RAL 420-4 vs Flamingo

RAL 420-4RAL EffectvsFlamingoTikkurilaΔE 24.3Distinct difference

RAL 420-4 is a RAL Effect color while Flamingo comes from Tikkurila. These are both pink-reds, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within pink-red to land. At LRV 34 vs 24, Flamingo will read as the brighter of the two — a 10-point gap that matters most in north-facing or low-light rooms. At ΔE 24.3, these are genuinely distinct colors — a strong contrast if used together, or a meaningful choice between two different directions. Below, 5 simulated room previews show how each color reads at scale — real-room photos will be added as they become available.

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.
