Smoky vs Grey white
Smoky is a Cloverdale Paint color while Grey white comes from RAL Classic. Smoky reads as beige-greige, while Grey white reads as greige-grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. At LRV 67 vs 63, Grey white will read as the brighter of the two — a 4-point gap that matters most in north-facing or low-light rooms. With a ΔE of 2.6, the difference is subtle — you'd need them side by side to reliably tell them apart.
