Closest matches across every brand
One match per brand, ranked by ΔE — a perceptual color difference score calculated from Lab color space values. Lower is closer. Click any card to compare side by side in simulated rooms.


Their light reflectance is nearly identical (LRV 72 vs 71), so neither reads brighter in a room. A ΔE of 0.9 means the difference barely reads in a finished room.



With LRVs of 71 and 70, the two reflect almost the same amount of light. At ΔE 2.6 you'd need them side by side to tell them apart.



A 3-point LRV gap (75 vs 71) makes Acorn the marginally brighter of the two. A ΔE of 2.6 means the difference barely reads in a finished room.


Rainforest Dew reads slightly lighter (LRV 74 vs 71), a gap that shows most in low-lit rooms. At ΔE 2.8 you'd need them side by side to tell them apart.



Chameleon reads slightly lighter (LRV 71 vs 67), a gap that shows most in low-lit rooms. At ΔE 2.9 you'd need them side by side to tell them apart.



With LRVs of 71 and 71, the two reflect almost the same amount of light. At ΔE 3.0 they're clearly different, yet close enough to share a room.



Soft Apple reads slightly lighter (LRV 83 vs 71), a gap that shows most in low-lit rooms. At ΔE 3.9 they're clearly different, yet close enough to share a room.


With LRVs of 72 and 71, the two reflect almost the same amount of light. At ΔE 4.4 they're clearly different, yet close enough to share a room.



RAL 130-5 reads slightly lighter (LRV 76 vs 71), a gap that shows most in low-lit rooms. At ΔE 4.9 they're clearly different, yet close enough to share a room.


May Apple reads slightly lighter (LRV 81 vs 71), a gap that shows most in low-lit rooms. At ΔE 5.1 they're clearly different, yet close enough to share a room.



Their light reflectance is nearly identical (LRV 71 vs 70), so neither reads brighter in a room. The ΔE 7.4 gap is real but not dramatic — distinct as a choice, harmonious together.


A 10-point LRV gap (71 vs 61) makes Chameleon the marginally brighter of the two. The ΔE 7.7 gap is real but not dramatic — distinct as a choice, harmonious together.



A 4-point LRV gap (71 vs 68) makes Chameleon the marginally brighter of the two. The ΔE 9.8 gap is real but not dramatic — distinct as a choice, harmonious together.



With LRVs of 72 and 71, the two reflect almost the same amount of light. At ΔE 13.1 these are two genuinely different directions, not variations on a theme.
