Overcoat vs Grey Tabby
Overcoat is a Benjamin Moore color while Grey Tabby comes from Dulux. These are both greys, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within grey to land. With LRVs of 15 and 16, they'll behave almost identically in terms of how much light they reflect back into a room. The tonal difference — Overcoat's red character against Grey Tabby's neutral — becomes most visible against white trim or in morning light. With a ΔE of 1.3, the difference is subtle — you'd need them side by side to reliably tell them apart.
