Groovy vs Tutti Frutti
Where Groovy belongs to Cloverdale Paint's range, Tutti Frutti is a PPG color. Both sit in the pink family, which is useful context if you're narrowing within a single hue direction. Groovy (LRV 28) reflects noticeably more light than Tutti Frutti (LRV 21), a difference of 7 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. The ΔE 8.3 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
