Danville Tan vs True Green

Danville Tan (LRV 41) reflects noticeably more light than True Green (LRV 9), a difference of 32 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Danville Tan runs red while True Green is decidedly green, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 48.7, the contrast is hard to miss.
