Watery Blue vs Grey white

Watery BluePPGvsGrey whiteRAL ClassicΔE 7.7Noticeable difference

Where Watery Blue belongs to PPG's range, Grey white is a RAL Classic color. Watery Blue reads as blue, while Grey white reads as greige-grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Watery Blue (LRV 72) reflects noticeably more light than Grey white (LRV 67), a difference of 5 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. The ΔE 7.7 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.
