Elephant Gray vs Silk Grey
Elephant Gray is a Benjamin Moore color while Silk Grey comes from RAL Classic. These are both greys, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within grey to land. At LRV 47 vs 42, Silk Grey will read as the brighter of the two — a 6-point gap that matters most in north-facing or low-light rooms. At ΔE 4.2, the difference is perceptible but not dramatic — the two can work harmoniously in the same space.
