Misty Gray vs Classic White
Where Misty Gray belongs to Benjamin Moore's range, Classic White is a Jotun color. Hue-wise, Misty Gray belongs to the blue-green family and Classic White to the beige-greige family. Classic White (LRV 86) reflects noticeably more light than Misty Gray (LRV 81), a difference of 5 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Misty Gray runs green while Classic White is decidedly warm, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. The ΔE 3.3 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
