Day Spa vs Blue grey
Day Spa (Cloverdale Paint) and Blue grey (RAL Classic) come from different manufacturers. Day Spa reads as blue, while Blue grey reads as blue-grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. The 6-point LRV gap — 16 for Blue grey vs 10 for Day Spa — means Blue grey will open up a space more effectively. ΔE 6.8 means they're clearly different, but not dramatically so — they'd pair well in the same room. Below you'll find 3 real-room photo comparisons where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.
Day Spa vs Blue grey in Real Spaces
3 real rooms side by side. Day Spa and Blue grey are close enough that the difference can be hard to judge from a chip alone — these photos show how each reads at scale, across different spaces and lighting conditions.
Living Room
A living room wall sees more varied light than almost any other surface in the house, which makes the choice between these two more nuanced than a chip suggests. Blue grey reads slightly lighter here — a subtle but real difference in how open the space feels.
Bedroom
Bedrooms are typically lit with warmer, lower light than the rest of the house — a condition that flatters warm tones and deepens cool ones. Blue grey has the edge in reflectance, which shows as a quiet sense of added space rather than an obvious contrast.
Bathroom
Small bathrooms intensify color. A shade that seems quiet in a larger room can feel immersive when you're surrounded by it on four walls. Blue grey has the edge in reflectance, which shows as a quiet sense of added space rather than an obvious contrast.

Day Spa vs Blue grey Simulated Comparison
5 simulated room previews — drag the slider on each to see Day Spa on one side and Blue grey on the other.
Digital color is approximate. These simulations are generated from the manufacturer's hex values and overlaid on grayscale room photos — your screen's calibration, brightness, and viewing angle all affect how they render. Before committing to either color, test physical samples in your own space under the light you actually live with.
