The 5-point LRV gap — 86 for Clear vs 81 for Linen White — means Clear will open up a space more effectively. Both share a warm character, which means they'll respond to light and surrounding materials in similar ways. A ΔE of 1.5 puts them in subtle territory — distinguishable in direct comparison, less so from across a room.

Digital color is approximate.
