Driftwood vs S 3005-G80Y
Where Driftwood belongs to Cloverdale Paint's range, S 3005-G80Y is a NCS color. These are both greige-greys, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within greige-grey to land. S 3005-G80Y (LRV 44) reflects noticeably more light than Driftwood (LRV 41), a difference of 3 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. At ΔE 2.2, these are close — the kind of difference that matters when choosing between them, but doesn't read strongly in a finished room.
