Cloak Gray vs Mythical
Cloak Gray and Mythical come from the same Sherwin-Williams collection. Cloak Gray reads as grey, while Mythical reads as blue-grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. The 8-point LRV gap — 20 for Mythical vs 11 for Cloak Gray — means Mythical will open up a space more effectively. Where Cloak Gray leans neutral, Mythical reads cool — a distinction that shifts noticeably depending on the light source and surrounding finishes.
