Me on the phone to a sales guy today: you’ve said the grey is aluminium, the colour chart has ‘white aluminium’ or ‘grey aluminium’
Him: whatever we’re currently using
Me: were currently using ‘traffic grey’
Him: what’s the difference?
Me: almost nothing and yet the customer will definitely notice 🙃
