What color is RAL Classic Grey Blue?
RAL Classic Grey Blue RAL 5008 is a deep, muted blue-grey with a noticeably dark, grounded presence. Its low saturation keeps the blue restrained, so it can read almost charcoal in dim rooms while showing a clearer slate-blue cast in daylight. Use it on cabinetry, interior doors, or a feature wall where a lighter trim can define its depth. Grey Blue pairs particularly well with soft off-whites, pale concrete tones, natural oak, brushed steel, and black metal details. On an exterior, this shade gives shutters, gates, or front doors a substantial look without appearing brightly colored.

LRV of Grey Blue
Grey Blue has an LRV of 7.45% 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 7.45%, 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.
