RAL 710-MRAL EffectvsEvergreen FogSherwin-WilliamsΔE 34.3Very different colors

RAL 710-M is a RAL Effect color while Evergreen Fog comes from Sherwin-Williams. RAL 710-M reads as blue, while Evergreen Fog reads as green-grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. At LRV 30 vs 7, Evergreen Fog will read as the brighter of the two — a 23-point gap that matters most in north-facing or low-light rooms. At ΔE 34.3, these are genuinely distinct colors — a strong contrast if used together, or a meaningful choice between two different directions.

Living Room

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.
