Kiara vs Lotus Petal
Where Kiara belongs to Cloverdale Paint's range, Lotus Petal is a PPG color. These are both beiges, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within beige to land. Kiara (LRV 84) reflects noticeably more light than Lotus Petal (LRV 81), a difference of 3 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. At ΔE 0.7, these are close — the kind of difference that matters when choosing between them, but doesn't read strongly in a finished room.
