Touch of Gray vs G488
Where Touch of Gray belongs to Benjamin Moore's range, G488 is a Tikkurila color. Both sit in the grey family, which is useful context if you're narrowing within a single hue direction. Touch of Gray (LRV 69) reflects noticeably more light than G488 (LRV 63), a difference of 6 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. The ΔE 4.3 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
