Free Spirit vs Snowbound
Where Free Spirit belongs to PPG's range, Snowbound is a Sherwin-Williams color. Free Spirit reads as blue, while Snowbound reads as beige-greige — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. They have nearly identical light reflectance values (83 vs 83), so they'll read as similarly Light in most lighting conditions. The ΔE 6.9 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
