White Lie vs Intrepid Grey
Where White Lie belongs to Behr's range, Intrepid Grey is a Sherwin-Williams color. These are both grey-whites, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within grey-white to land. Intrepid Grey (LRV 76) reflects noticeably more light than White Lie (LRV 73), a difference of 3 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. White Lie runs yellow while Intrepid Grey is decidedly neutral, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. 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.
