Orchid Shadow vs Silver Band
Orchid Shadow is a Cloverdale Paint color while Silver Band comes from PPG. These are both greys, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within grey to land. With LRVs of 57 and 56, they'll behave almost identically in terms of how much light they reflect back into a room. With a ΔE of 1.7, the difference is subtle — you'd need them side by side to reliably tell them apart.
