Vintage Charm vs Thames Fog
Where Vintage Charm belongs to Benjamin Moore's range, Thames Fog is a Valspar color. These are both greys, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within grey to land. Thames Fog (LRV 27) reflects noticeably more light than Vintage Charm (LRV 18), a difference of 9 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. With a ΔE of 16.4, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
