Gray By Me vs Vulcanite
Where Gray By Me belongs to PPG's range, Vulcanite is a Tikkurila color. These are both greige-greys, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within greige-grey to land. Gray By Me (LRV 32) reflects noticeably more light than Vulcanite (LRV 29), a difference of 3 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. The ΔE 3.0 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
