Pacific Fog vs White Sail
Both from Sherwin-Williams's palette. Hue-wise, Pacific Fog belongs to the greige-grey family and White Sail to the greige-white family. White Sail (LRV 83) reflects noticeably more light than Pacific Fog (LRV 71), a difference of 12 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Both lean neutral, so they'll behave similarly in mixed or changing light conditions. The ΔE 5.6 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.

Digital color is approximate.
