Blue Paisley vs Blue Plate
Where Blue Paisley belongs to PPG's range, Blue Plate is a Sherwin-Williams color. Both sit in the blue family, which is useful context if you're narrowing within a single hue direction. Blue Paisley (LRV 20) reflects noticeably more light than Blue Plate (LRV 17), a difference of 3 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. The ΔE 3.9 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
