The difference
Read from the numbersBoth read cool. Silver Metallic is a gray, Tranquility a blue.
How they read
In their own wordsSilver Metallic is a Meoded decorative plaster rather than a flat paint — a pewter-toned finish with a pearl sheen that shifts as you move through the room. In daylight it reads as a soft warm grey; at night, with candles and lamps, it glimmers like brushed metal.
Tranquility is a pale grey from Benjamin Moore's Affinity collection with a soft green-blue whisper — the color of sea fog rather than a city sky. At LRV 53 it is a true light-mid tone, and it does exactly what its name suggests: it calms a room without making it cold.
