Copper vs RAL 330-M paint color comparison

Copper vs RAL 330-M

CopperCloverdale PaintvsRAL 330-MRAL EffectΔE 7.1Noticeable difference

Where Copper belongs to Cloverdale Paint's range, RAL 330-M is a RAL Effect color. Hue-wise, Copper belongs to the beige family and RAL 330-M to the beige-pink family. Copper (LRV 18) reflects noticeably more light than RAL 330-M (LRV 13), a difference of 5 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. The ΔE 7.1 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice. Below you'll find 4 real-room photo comparisons where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.

Copper vs RAL 330-M in Real Spaces

4 real rooms side by side. Copper and RAL 330-M are close enough that the difference can be hard to judge from a chip alone — these photos show how each reads at scale, across different spaces and lighting conditions.

Living Room

In a living room, color works across both daylight and evening light — the same wall can read very differently at noon and at 8pm. The brightness difference is modest but present — Copper gives the walls a little more lift.

Bedroom

The context that matters most in a bedroom is how a color reads under a bedside lamp at night, not under noon daylight. Copper reads slightly lighter here — a subtle but real difference in how open the space feels.

Kitchen

In a kitchen, colors are seen under bright task lighting that amplifies undertones — what reads neutral elsewhere can show its hand here. Copper reads slightly lighter here — a subtle but real difference in how open the space feels.

Bathroom

Bathrooms are one of the few spaces where you're genuinely enclosed by the paint color, which makes the choice between these two more consequential. Copper reads slightly lighter here — a subtle but real difference in how open the space feels.

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.
