Stargazer vs Colonial Revival Gray

Stargazer is a PPG color while Colonial Revival Gray comes from Sherwin-Williams. Both sit in the grey family, which is useful context if you're narrowing within a single hue direction. With LRVs of 46 and 48, they'll behave almost identically in terms of how much light they reflect back into a room. With a ΔE of 2.1, the difference is subtle — you'd need them side by side to reliably tell them apart.

Digital color is approximate.

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