What color is RAL Classic Blue green?
RAL Classic Blue green RAL 6004 is a very deep blue-green with a near-black depth that becomes more apparent in low light. Its #024442 value suggests a cool, strongly saturated green-blue base rather than a softened or dusty tone. On broad walls, Blue green can create a dense, shadowy backdrop, while on cabinetry, doors, or trim it reads as a crisp dark color with more visible teal character. Pair it with warm white, pale stone, natural oak, brass, or aged bronze to bring out its green side. In bright daylight, this shade is likely to show more color; under warm artificial lighting, it may appear darker and more subdued.

LRV of Blue green
Blue green has an LRV of 7.66% 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 7.66%, 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.
