RAL 450-3 vs Begonia
Where RAL 450-3 belongs to RAL Effect's range, Begonia is a Sherwin-Williams color. These are both pink-reds, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within pink-red to land. RAL 450-3 (LRV 32) reflects noticeably more light than Begonia (LRV 26), a difference of 6 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. The ΔE 6.7 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
