Frosty Glade vs Raindrop

Frosty GladePPGvsRaindropSherwin-WilliamsΔE 3.1Noticeable difference

Where Frosty Glade belongs to PPG's range, Raindrop is a Sherwin-Williams color. Both sit in the blue family, which is useful context if you're narrowing within a single hue direction. Raindrop (LRV 52) reflects noticeably more light than Frosty Glade (LRV 48), a difference of 4 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. The ΔE 3.1 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice. Below, 5 simulated room previews show how each color reads at scale — real-room photos will be added as they become available.

Digital color is approximate.

Before committing to either color, test physical samples in your own space under the light you actually live with.
