Plum Dandy vs Heather
Plum Dandy (Sherwin-Williams) and Heather (Tikkurila) come from different manufacturers. These are both greys, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within grey to land. The 4-point LRV gap — 21 for Heather vs 17 for Plum Dandy — means Heather will open up a space more effectively. ΔE 5.0 means they're clearly different, but not dramatically so — they'd pair well in the same room.

Digital color is approximate.
