Telegrey 4 vs Misty

Telegrey 4RAL ClassicvsMistySherwin-WilliamsΔE 3.1Noticeable difference

Where Telegrey 4 belongs to RAL Classic's range, Misty is a Sherwin-Williams color. Telegrey 4 reads as grey, while Misty reads as blue-grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Misty (LRV 64) reflects noticeably more light than Telegrey 4 (LRV 59), a difference of 5 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. The ΔE 3.1 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice. Below you'll find 1 real-room photo comparison where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.

Telegrey 4 vs Misty in Real Spaces

1 real room side by side. Telegrey 4 and Misty are close enough that the difference can be hard to judge from a chip alone — these photos show how each reads at scale, across different spaces and lighting conditions.

Bedroom

The context that matters most in a bedroom is how a color reads under a bedside lamp at night, not under noon daylight. Misty reads slightly lighter here — a subtle but real difference in how open the space feels.

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.
