Bashful Blue vs Overcast
Bashful Blue (Cloverdale Paint) and Overcast (PPG) come from different manufacturers. These are both blues, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within blue to land. The 6-point LRV gap — 36 for Overcast vs 30 for Bashful Blue — means Overcast will open up a space more effectively. ΔE 4.2 means they're clearly different, but not dramatically so — they'd pair well in the same room.
