What color is RAL Classic Moss Green?
RAL Classic Moss Green RAL 6005 is a deeply shaded green with a muted, cool-leaning cast and substantial visual weight. Its dark value can read nearly black-green in low light, while brighter daylight reveals the green more clearly. Use it on kitchen cabinetry, a study wall, exterior doors, or metalwork where a strong, grounded color is wanted. Moss Green pairs well with warm white, pale stone, natural oak, aged brass, and charcoal finishes. On large walls, balance this color with ample daylight or lighter surrounding surfaces to keep the room from feeling too enclosed.

LRV of Moss Green
Moss Green has an LRV of 4.29% 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 4.29%, 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.
