What color is RAL Classic Pearl ruby red?

RAL Classic Pearl ruby red RAL 3032 is a deep, dark red with a restrained, slightly cool cast rather than an orange or brick-red pull. Its low-light character makes it especially effective on a front door, dining-room cabinetry, or a single accent wall where a dense color can be appreciated up close. In bright daylight, Pearl ruby red reads as a clear wine-toned red; under evening lighting, it settles into a more shadowy, near-oxblood appearance. Pair this shade with warm off-whites, charcoal, blackened steel, walnut, or aged brass to bring out its richness without making the room feel overly red.

LRV of Pearl ruby red

Pearl ruby red has an LRV of 8.36% and refers to Dark colors which means that this color almost does not reflect 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 8.36%, 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.
