What color is RAL Classic Pearl copper?

RAL Classic Pearl copper RAL 8029 is a deep, earthy red-brown with a clear warm cast. Its muted richness keeps it from reading as bright red, instead showing a grounded mix of brown and brick-like warmth. In strong daylight, this shade can appear more russet, while lower or warmer lighting brings out its darker brown side. Use Pearl copper on cabinetry, a dining-room accent wall, or exterior trim where its depth can hold its own. It pairs especially well with warm off-whites, charcoal, blackened metal, natural oak, and tactile materials such as leather or clay tile.

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 14.02%, 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.
