Trench Coat vs Colony Buff
Where Trench Coat belongs to Dulux's range, Colony Buff is a Sherwin-Williams color. These are both beiges, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within beige to land. Trench Coat (LRV 62) reflects noticeably more light than Colony Buff (LRV 59), a difference of 3 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Both lean warm, so they'll behave similarly in mixed or changing light conditions. At ΔE 2.4, these are close — the kind of difference that matters when choosing between them, but doesn't read strongly in a finished room.
