You can use Munsell Conversion color from then go to to find the closest RAL Code. (a European Industrial paint supplier is your best bet).Īctually RAL and Munsell are using different standard of colors. Alternatively if you just want a colour chart (not exact shade) with RAL colours on it, speak to a friendly paint supplier. If you type in this will tell you all you need to know about RAL colours. If you have a spectrophotometer test the colours on it.
The best way is to sit down with a RAL and a Pantone colour chart and look for similar colours. Remmelt Bosklopper - Enschede, The NetherlandsĪll the years I have been working with colours I have never found an exact correlation between these two colour systems. The RAL-site official colour-cards are supplied in USA by: DORN COLOR, Inc. Alternatively, scan the RAL colours and determine manually which has RGB values closest to yours. There is probably an easier way, but in the past (converting RGB images to embroidery thread colours) I scanned a colour chart, then used the colour blocks to set up a custom pallet in Photoshop, then told photoshop to convert the image to the custom palet.
