Paper vs Mink Frost
Where Paper belongs to Tikkurila's range, Mink Frost is a Valspar color. Paper (LRV 88) reflects noticeably more light than Mink Frost (LRV 70), a difference of 18 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. The ΔE 8.7 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
Paper vs Mink Frost Color Comparison
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.

Paper vs Mink Frost in Real Spaces
Paper and Mink Frost are close enough that the difference can be hard to judge from a chip alone. These real-room photos show how each reads at scale, across different spaces and lighting conditions. Showing 1 room type where both colors have photos.
Living Room
In a living room, color works across both daylight and evening light — the same wall can read very differently at noon and at 8pm. The LRV gap is large enough that Paper will make the room feel meaningfully brighter than Mink Frost would.
