How RAL 1035 reads
On screen pearl beige looks like a muted greyish taupe, a little darker than RAL 1019 grey beige. In real life it carries a pearlescent sheen, so the surface shimmers and shifts as the viewing angle changes.
Where it turns up
Pearl shades are used on furniture, shopfittings, trim and decorative panels. A flat screen swatch cannot show the pearlescent effect, so judge it from a sprayed sample, and expect the look to depend on application and clear coat.
Ordering RAL 1035 in paint or powder
Quote the number, not just the name: say "RAL Classic 1035" and add the gloss level, the product type (wall paint, metal paint, powder, aerosol) and the surface. The same number mixed by two makers, or in two gloss levels, can look slightly different, so keep a whole job in one batch and look at a sample in daylight first. The paint counter guide covers the questions to ask.
