Lilac Gray vs Tabby Cat Gray
Both from Valspar's palette. Both sit in the grey family, which is useful context if you're narrowing within a single hue direction. Tabby Cat Gray (LRV 28) reflects noticeably more light than Lilac Gray (LRV 25), a difference of 3 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. The ΔE 6.5 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
