Marine Splash vs Aquastone
Where Marine Splash belongs to Dulux's range, Aquastone is a Sherwin-Williams color. These are both blues, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within blue to land. Marine Splash (LRV 60) reflects noticeably more light than Aquastone (LRV 49), a difference of 11 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Both lean cool, so they'll behave similarly in mixed or changing light conditions. The ΔE 9.0 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
