RAL 520-1 vs Vanity Pink
Where RAL 520-1 belongs to RAL Effect's range, Vanity Pink is a Sherwin-Williams color. These are both pinks, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within pink to land. RAL 520-1 (LRV 72) reflects noticeably more light than Vanity Pink (LRV 65), a difference of 6 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. The ΔE 3.3 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
