Drop Cloth vs Pebble grey
Where Drop Cloth belongs to Farrow & Ball's range, Pebble grey is a RAL Classic color. Drop Cloth reads as beige-greige, while Pebble grey reads as greige-grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Drop Cloth (LRV 52) reflects noticeably more light than Pebble grey (LRV 45), a difference of 7 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. The ΔE 6.3 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
