Cottage White vs Chalk
Where Cottage White belongs to Behr's range, Chalk is a Cloverdale Paint color. Cottage White reads as beige-white, while Chalk reads as beige — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Chalk (LRV 85) reflects noticeably more light than Cottage White (LRV 82), a difference of 3 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. At ΔE 1.5, these are close — the kind of difference that matters when choosing between them, but doesn't read strongly in a finished room.
