Ufo vs L493
Ufo is a PPG color while L493 comes from Tikkurila. Both sit in the blue-grey family, which is useful context if you're narrowing within a single hue direction. With LRVs of 35 and 34, they'll behave almost identically in terms of how much light they reflect back into a room. At ΔE 3.4, the difference is perceptible but not dramatic — the two can work harmoniously in the same space.

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.
