Elephant Gray vs Grey aluminium
Where Elephant Gray belongs to PPG's range, Grey aluminium is a RAL Classic color. Both sit in the grey family, which is useful context if you're narrowing within a single hue direction. Grey aluminium (LRV 29) reflects noticeably more light than Elephant Gray (LRV 24), a difference of 5 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. The ΔE 3.3 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
