Braintree vs Sea Grove
Where Braintree belongs to Sherwin-Williams's range, Sea Grove is a Valspar color. These are both greys, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within grey to land. Sea Grove (LRV 15) reflects noticeably more light than Braintree (LRV 12), a difference of 3 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. The ΔE 4.9 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
