What color is RAL Classic Olive drab?
RAL Classic Olive drab RAL 6022 is a deep, subdued olive-brown with a noticeably earthy cast. Its low brightness gives it substantial visual weight, so it reads especially well on cabinetry, doors, built-in shelving, or a single accent wall rather than throughout a small, dim room. In daylight, this shade can show more of its restrained olive character, while warmer artificial light may bring forward the brown undertone. Pair it with warm white, sand, clay, or natural oak for a grounded palette, or use blackened metal and aged brass to sharpen its darker edge. Matte finishes suit its muted character particularly well on interior woodwork and exterior details.

LRV of Olive drab
Olive drab has an LRV of 6.32% 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 6.32%, 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.
