Ochre vs Buffalo Trail
Where Ochre belongs to Cloverdale Paint's range, Buffalo Trail is a PPG color. These are both beiges, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within beige to land. Ochre (LRV 48) reflects noticeably more light than Buffalo Trail (LRV 44), a difference of 4 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. The ΔE 3.6 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
