With LRVs of 52 and 51, the two reflect almost the same amount of light. At ΔE 1.2 you'd need them side by side to tell them apart.


Angora reads slightly lighter (LRV 54 vs 51), a gap that shows most in low-lit rooms. At ΔE 1.8 you'd need them side by side to tell them apart.


Their light reflectance is nearly identical (LRV 51 vs 50), so neither reads brighter in a room. A ΔE of 1.9 means the difference barely reads in a finished room.



Romulus reads slightly lighter (LRV 57 vs 51), a gap that shows most in low-lit rooms. At ΔE 2.1 you'd need them side by side to tell them apart.



With LRVs of 52 and 51, the two reflect almost the same amount of light. At ΔE 2.2 you'd need them side by side to tell them apart.



Their light reflectance is nearly identical (LRV 53 vs 51), so neither reads brighter in a room. A ΔE of 2.4 means the difference barely reads in a finished room.



Setting Plaster reads slightly lighter (LRV 58 vs 51), a gap that shows most in low-lit rooms. At ΔE 3.1 they're clearly different, yet close enough to share a room.
