Elephant Gray vs Smoky Wings
Elephant Gray is a Benjamin Moore color while Smoky Wings comes from Cloverdale Paint. These are both greys, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within grey to land. At LRV 44 vs 42, Smoky Wings will read as the brighter of the two — a 3-point gap that matters most in north-facing or low-light rooms. With a ΔE of 1.7, the difference is subtle — you'd need them side by side to reliably tell them apart.
