Gray Mirage vs Stingray paint color comparison

Gray Mirage vs Stingray

Both are Benjamin Moore colors. Both sit in the beige-greige family, which is useful context if you're narrowing within a single hue direction. At LRV 58 vs 54, Stingray will read as the brighter of the two — a 4-point gap that matters most in north-facing or low-light rooms. The tonal difference — Gray Mirage's yellow character against Stingray's warm — becomes most visible against white trim or in morning light. With a ΔE of 2.5, the difference is subtle — you'd need them side by side to reliably tell them apart. Below, 5 simulated room previews show how each color reads at scale — real-room photos will be added as they become available.

Digital color is approximate. These simulations are generated from the manufacturer's hex values and overlaid on grayscale room photos — your screen's calibration, brightness, and viewing angle all affect how they render. Before committing to either color, test physical samples in your own space under the light you actually live with.
