Mineral Ice vs Gauze - Mid
Where Mineral Ice belongs to Benjamin Moore's range, Gauze - Mid is a Little Greene color. Mineral Ice reads as blue-grey, while Gauze - Mid reads as blue-white — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Gauze - Mid (LRV 79) reflects noticeably more light than Mineral Ice (LRV 73), a difference of 6 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Both lean blue, so they'll behave similarly in mixed or changing light conditions. At ΔE 2.3, these are close — the kind of difference that matters when choosing between them, but doesn't read strongly in a finished room.
