Harbor Fog vs Signal White
Where Harbor Fog belongs to Benjamin Moore's range, Signal White is a RAL Classic color. Harbor Fog reads as blue, while Signal White reads as white — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Signal White (LRV 85) reflects noticeably more light than Harbor Fog (LRV 75), a difference of 11 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. The ΔE 8.8 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.

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.
