Rare Gray vs Coastal Jetty
Rare Gray is a Sherwin-Williams color while Coastal Jetty comes from Valspar. These are both greys, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within grey to land. With LRVs of 38 and 40, they'll behave almost identically in terms of how much light they reflect back into a room. With a ΔE of 1.6, the difference is subtle — you'd need them side by side to reliably tell them apart.

Digital color is approximate.
