What color is RAL Classic Pearl opal green?

RAL Classic Pearl opal green RAL 6036 is a deep blue-green with a distinctly cool cast and substantial visual weight. Its low-brightness, saturated character reads almost like dark teal in shade, while stronger daylight brings out its green core. Pearl opal green is particularly effective on cabinetry, a front door, or a single accent wall where its depth can be appreciated without darkening an entire room. Pair it with warm off-white plaster, pale oak, brushed brass, or light stone to give the color contrast and prevent the scheme from feeling too cool. In larger spaces, it benefits from good natural light or layered artificial lighting, as it can appear notably darker in corners and evening conditions.

LRV of Pearl opal green

Pearl opal green has an LRV of 14.23% and refers to Medium Dark which means that this color reflects very little light. Why LRV is important?

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 14.23%, 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.
