Twine vs Cool Pine
Where Twine belongs to Cloverdale Paint's range, Cool Pine is a Valspar color. These are both greige-greys, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within greige-grey to land. Twine (LRV 43) reflects noticeably more light than Cool Pine (LRV 40), a difference of 3 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. The ΔE 5.0 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice. Below you'll find 2 real-room photo comparisons where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.
Twine vs Cool Pine in Real Spaces
2 real rooms side by side. Twine and Cool Pine are close enough that the difference can be hard to judge from a chip alone — these photos show how each reads at scale, across different spaces and lighting conditions.
Living Room
In a living room, color works across both daylight and evening light — the same wall can read very differently at noon and at 8pm. The brightness difference is modest but present — Twine gives the walls a little more lift.

Digital color is approximate. These simulations are generated from the manufacturer's hex values and overlaid on grayscale room photos — your screen's calibration, brightness, and viewing angle all affect how they render. Before committing to either color, test physical samples in your own space under the light you actually live with.
