Coastal Fog vs Flipper
Where Coastal Fog belongs to Cloverdale Paint's range, Flipper is a PPG color. These are both greige-greys, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within greige-grey to land. Coastal Fog (LRV 20) reflects noticeably more light than Flipper (LRV 17), a difference of 3 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. The ΔE 3.5 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice. Below, 5 simulated room previews show how each color reads at scale — real-room photos will be added as they become available.
