Melon TintSherwin-WilliamsvsPosySherwin-WilliamsΔE 2.9Subtle difference

At LRV 82 vs 77, Melon Tint will read as the brighter of the two — a 5-point gap that matters most in north-facing or low-light rooms. They share a warm quality — useful to know if you're layering them in the same space. With a ΔE of 2.9, the difference is subtle — you'd need them side by side to reliably tell them apart.

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.
