Slip vs S 1005-R50B
Slip (Benjamin Moore) and S 1005-R50B (NCS) come from different manufacturers. These are both greys, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within grey to land. The 7-point LRV gap — 70 for S 1005-R50B vs 63 for Slip — means S 1005-R50B will open up a space more effectively. Where Slip leans red, S 1005-R50B reads neutral — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes. A ΔE of 2.5 puts them in subtle territory — distinguishable in direct comparison, less so from across a room.

Digital color is approximate.
