Pale Powder vs Cloudy Day
Where Pale Powder belongs to Farrow & Ball's range, Cloudy Day is a PPG color. Hue-wise, Pale Powder belongs to the grey family and Cloudy Day to the green family. Cloudy Day (LRV 76) reflects noticeably more light than Pale Powder (LRV 70), a difference of 6 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. The ΔE 3.6 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
