Are you sure this isn't Sea Haze? Desert Twilight is shade darker.

Hi Scott, Desert Twilight is the info I have. It may or may not be accurate- sometimes things change on a construction site without being documented.

FYI- The appearance of a color can shift dramatically with the quality of the natural illumination, and even more dramatically with the many variables that photography and presentation on a computer screen bring to the process. The surroundings can also shift the appearance of a color. My recommendation: When you view a brush-out sample of a color in the actual location, orientation, and lighting of the final installation- only then can you trust what you see. If its not what you want, tweak the mix and try again. Repeat until you like it... that's what its all about!

Thank you. I did test Desert Twilight and it is not close to color of house. I will now try Sea Haze before committing as you recommend!

I got a sample of Sea Haze and it is so much bluer than what is shown here, if that helps
