Secret Crush vs Snowbound
Where Secret Crush belongs to PPG's range, Snowbound is a Sherwin-Williams color. Secret Crush reads as green-grey, while Snowbound reads as beige-greige — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Snowbound (LRV 83) reflects noticeably more light than Secret Crush (LRV 72), a difference of 11 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. The ΔE 6.6 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
