Mexican Spirit vs Gingerbread
Where Mexican Spirit belongs to Cloverdale Paint's range, Gingerbread is a PPG color. These are both beiges, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within beige to land. Mexican Spirit (LRV 32) reflects noticeably more light than Gingerbread (LRV 28), a difference of 4 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. The ΔE 4.2 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
