Kathleen's Garden vs Spruce Shade
Kathleen's Garden (Cloverdale Paint) and Spruce Shade (PPG) come from different manufacturers. These are both green-greys, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within green-grey to land. Their light reflectance values are nearly the same — 36 vs 34 — so neither will read significantly brighter or darker than the other. A ΔE of 2.2 puts them in subtle territory — distinguishable in direct comparison, less so from across a room.
