City Fog vs Braintree
Where City Fog belongs to Dulux's range, Braintree is a Sherwin-Williams color. These are both greys, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within grey to land. City Fog (LRV 15) reflects noticeably more light than Braintree (LRV 12), a difference of 3 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Both lean neutral, so they'll behave similarly in mixed or changing light conditions. At ΔE 1.8, these are close — the kind of difference that matters when choosing between them, but doesn't read strongly in a finished room.
