Cancun Sand vs Filtered Sunlight
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Hue-wise, Cancun Sand belongs to the beige family and Filtered Sunlight to the beige-red family. Cancun Sand (LRV 86) reflects noticeably more light than Filtered Sunlight (LRV 81), a difference of 6 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Both lean red, so they'll behave similarly in mixed or changing light conditions. The ΔE 6.3 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
