What color is RAL Classic Black red?
RAL Classic Black red RAL 3007 is a very deep red-brown with a muted, near-black appearance at first glance. Its #3E2022 value gives it a restrained red cast rather than a bright wine or cherry effect, so it reads earthy and weighty on large surfaces. In daylight, Black red can show its dark burgundy-brown character more clearly, while low or warm lighting pushes it closer to black. Use it for a dining room feature wall, built-in cabinetry, or a front door where a dense, grounded color feels appropriate. It pairs well with warm ivory, soft greige, aged brass, walnut, and natural stone with brown or cream variation.

What are RAL Classic Black red undertones?

LRV of Black red
Black red has an LRV of 5.47% and refers to Dark colors which means that this color almost does not reflect 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 5.47%, 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.
