Superhero Gray vs Agate

Superhero GrayPPGvsAgateTikkurilaΔE 4.6Noticeable difference

Superhero Gray is a PPG color while Agate comes from Tikkurila. Both sit in the blue-grey family, which is useful context if you're narrowing within a single hue direction. At LRV 30 vs 25, Agate will read as the brighter of the two — a 5-point gap that matters most in north-facing or low-light rooms. At ΔE 4.6, the difference is perceptible but not dramatic — the two can work harmoniously in the same space. Below, 5 simulated room previews show how each color reads at scale — real-room photos will be added as they become available.

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.
