White Smoke vs Pittsburgh Gray
White Smoke (Cloverdale Paint) and Pittsburgh Gray (PPG) come from different manufacturers. White Smoke reads as grey-white, while Pittsburgh Gray reads as grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Their light reflectance values are nearly the same — 60 vs 59 — so neither will read significantly brighter or darker than the other. A ΔE of 1.4 puts them in subtle territory — distinguishable in direct comparison, less so from across a room. Below, 5 simulated room previews show how each color reads at scale — real-room photos will be added as they become available.
