Personally, CWM looks flatter compared to the greyish hue embedded in chalk. Chalk being non-metallic also has a matte color look.

Sure, lighting is everything, but I don't think Chalk looks a matt finish at all... even in the shade of the trees the gloss finish is clearly evident!

The only real way for you to compare these 2 colours is side by side in person, they are lot different!

The only way you could not see this if you are seeing the cars at two different times and not near to each other, or... in pictures.

CWM and Chalk are not even in the same ballpark despite what photos seems to indicate. One is white and the other is obviously not. Like Westcoast said, side by side it's not even close. And the Chalk is nowhere near matte as far as sheen goes. Very glossy.

Default In the setting sun Chalk is a chameleon like colour...
Please forgive the sun flare on the lens, these were taken a few days ago and less than a minute apart, just cleaned up after a day of driving!
