Finding a PPG Equivalent for Chantilly Lace
If you love Benjamin Moore Chantilly Lace but need a PPG alternative, you are not alone. This is one of the most common cross-brand paint matching searches, whether you are working with a painter who prefers PPG, your local store does not carry Benjamin Moore, or you simply want to compare prices across brands before committing.
Chantilly Lace (OC-65) is a very light white with true neutral undertones. About as close to a true, pure white as Benjamin Moore offers. No visible yellow, pink, or blue. Clean and crisp. To find a good PPG match, we need a color that captures not just the right depth (LRV 92.2) but also that specific undertone character. That is where Delta E color science comes in.
We calculated the perceptual color distance between Chantilly Lace and every PPG color using the CIE2000 Delta E formula, which measures how different two colors look to the human eye. A Delta E under 2 means most people cannot tell the colors apart. Between 2 and 4, you might notice a difference in certain lighting. Above 5, the difference is clearly visible side by side.
The results are decent but not perfect. The closest PPG option is Delicate White (PPG1001-1) with a Delta E of 3.4, which is a "good match" level match. Delicate White is warmer than Chantilly Lace. For a truer neutral, Chantilly Lace is cleaner. You will want to test a sample before committing, as the difference may be noticeable in certain lighting.

No, they are not identical. Chantilly Lace is a Benjamin Moore color with true neutral undertones and an LRV of 92.2. Delicate White is a PPG color with neutral-cool white undertones and an LRV of 90. With a Delta E of 3.4, the difference is subtle and mainly visible in direct side-by-side comparison. Paint formulations differ between brands, so even colors with similar values can look slightly different due to pigment concentration, binders, and finish.
With a Delta E of 3.4, the difference is enough that they should not be used on adjacent walls in the same room. You can use them in separate rooms of the same house, but be aware that walking from one room to the other may reveal the difference, especially if the rooms have similar lighting. For the most consistent look, pick one brand for all connected living spaces and reserve the other brand for visually separate rooms like bathrooms or bedrooms behind closed doors.
There are several practical reasons to look for a PPG equivalent. Price differences between brands can be significant on large projects. Availability matters if your nearest paint store or home center specializes in PPG. Some painters have strong preferences for one brand's formula based on coverage, dry time, or workability. And if you are touching up existing PPG work, matching within the same brand gives you the best consistency for seamless results.
