Abalone vs Comet

Abalone and Comet come from the same Benjamin Moore collection. Abalone reads as greige-grey, while Comet reads as blue-grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. The 26-point LRV gap — 62 for Abalone vs 36 for Comet — means Abalone will open up a space more effectively. Where Abalone leans red, Comet reads blue — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes. A ΔE of 20.9 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives.
