Sherwin-Williams

Where Steel Curtain belongs to PPG's range, Evergreen Fog is a Sherwin-Williams color. Steel Curtain (LRV 34) reflects noticeably more light than Evergreen Fog (LRV 30), a difference of 4 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. The ΔE 5.5 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.

Digital color is approximate. These simulations are generated from the manufacturer's hex values and overlaid on grayscale room photos — your screen's calibration, brightness, and viewing angle all affect how they render. Before committing to either color, test physical samples in your own space under the light you actually live with.
