French Silver vs After the Rain
French Silver is a Behr color while After the Rain comes from Benjamin Moore. These are both greys, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within grey to land. With LRVs of 50 and 50, they'll behave almost identically in terms of how much light they reflect back into a room. The tonal difference — French Silver's blue character against After the Rain's red — becomes most visible against white trim or in morning light.
