What color is RAL Classic Agate Grey?
RAL Classic Agate Grey RAL 7038 is a light, muted grey with a subtle green cast that keeps it from looking flat or stark. Its low-saturation character gives walls a soft, practical finish, while daylight can bring out its faint sage-leaning undertone. In warmer artificial light, Agate Grey may appear more neutral and slightly softer. It suits broad wall areas, built-in cabinetry, and exterior details where a pale grey is wanted without the sharpness of a blue-grey. Pair it with warm white trim, natural oak, brushed metal, charcoal accents, or dusty green textiles for a grounded, restrained palette.

LRV of Agate Grey
Agate Grey has an LRV of 45.08% and refers to Light Medium colors that reflect half of the incident light. Why LRV is important?
Light Reflectance Value measures the amount of visible and usable light that reflects from a painted surface.
Simply put, the higher the LRV of a paint color, the brighter the room you will get.
The scale goes from 0% (absolute black, absorbing all light) to 100% (pure white, reflecting all light).
Act like a pro: When choosing paint with an LRV of 45.08%, pay attention to your bulbs' brightness. Light brightness is measured in lumens. The lower the paint's LRV, the higher lumen level you need. Every square foot of room needs at least 40 lumens. That means for a 200 ft2 living room you'll need about 8000 lumens of light – e.g., eight 1000 lm bulbs.
