What color is RAL Classic Moss grey?

RAL Classic Moss grey RAL 7003 is a muted mid-depth grey with a noticeable olive-khaki cast, reflected in its softened, low-saturation appearance. It reads warmer than a blue grey, though it remains restrained rather than earthy or golden. In bright daylight, Moss grey can show more of its green-leaning undertone; under warmer lamps, it appears slightly browner and more subdued. Use this color on cabinetry, exterior trim, or full walls in rooms with pale oak, linen, stone, and brushed black metal. Crisp off-whites and chalky cream tones give it contrast, while deeper charcoal accents keep the palette grounded.

Light Reflectance Value scale illustration

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 20.19%, 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.
