RAL 820-2 vs RAL 830-2
Both from RAL Effect's palette. RAL 820-2 reads as blue-grey, while RAL 830-2 reads as grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. RAL 820-2 (LRV 42) reflects noticeably more light than RAL 830-2 (LRV 38), a difference of 4 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. The ΔE 4.2 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
