Muslin Tint vs Chai
Muslin Tint (Cloverdale Paint) and Chai (Tikkurila) come from different manufacturers. These are both beiges, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within beige to land. The 4-point LRV gap — 64 for Muslin Tint vs 60 for Chai — means Muslin Tint will open up a space more effectively. A ΔE of 1.7 puts them in subtle territory — distinguishable in direct comparison, less so from across a room.
