Set In Stone vs Driftwood Blues

Set In StonePPGvsDriftwood BluesValsparΔE 3.5Noticeable difference

Where Set In Stone belongs to PPG's range, Driftwood Blues is a Valspar color. These are both blue-greys, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within blue-grey to land. Driftwood Blues (LRV 46) reflects noticeably more light than Set In Stone (LRV 42), a difference of 4 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. The ΔE 3.5 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.
