Color of roof rafters - lighter gray, which RAL

I just ordered one of those RAL cards myself – let's see what it will be. Are there any tricks on how to project a small color card area onto a larger surface / make life easier? Or is it ultimately just a "guesswork" decision? :)

Off topic: Great that someone besides me has started a "Colors Thread" :) According to some practically minded co-forum members and experts, it’s rather (rightfully) pointless because colors look different on every monitor, phone, etc., but it’s still fun. :) What other thread is there in this forum where you can simply speculate, guess, estimate so nicely and relaxed without having to comment knowledgeably and on a high argumentative level. Also, this is one of those threads where every contributor is theoretically right.

For me it’s RAL 000 65 00 Mortar grey Mortar grey

Are there any tricks on how to project a small area of a color chart onto a large area / make life easier?

Ask yourself whether, after moving in/painting, you might be able to tell which color from the color chart (from the left) it is: 2, 10, 1, 14 or 18.

As Loriot so nicely puts it: "wrong!, like the Zweite - THAT is quality! - originally brewed and corked ..." and otherwise "Pussi," as we know, recommends "a fresh stone gray" :)

I personally wouldn't use a third color component, but that's a matter of taste.
