Gray Whisper vs Lotus Petal
Both from PPG's palette. Gray Whisper reads as grey-white, while Lotus Petal reads as beige — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Lotus Petal (LRV 81) reflects noticeably more light than Gray Whisper (LRV 78), a difference of 3 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. The ΔE 7.4 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
