grey scale made bij Sigil

making text with Sigil to build an ePub i like to name the head of every chapter in grey.
I tried to use " color: #999;" of 666 or ccc, but in my Kobo with e-Ink only 999 apears.
Are there any greyscales to use in Sigil, wich perform a smooth grey text?

new registration and a question about grey scales

it was 18 years ago when i first registered myself as Hapipiko here with my iLiad, but i lost my emailadres at hotmail and gmail, so this is a new registration.
I like to build ePub books, with Sigil. but it shows nog all the grey I want.

E-ink is not an iMac screen, so I tried to make it look good.
what to do?

And was it definitely a number starting with # in every case?

Code:
  <p>NORMAL</p>

  <p style="color: #999">TEST #999</p>

  <p style="color: #666">TEST #666</p>

  <p style="color: #ccc">TEST #ccc</p>

Of course.

BTW: #ccc = #cccccc

You can use any color.
Simply put:
a) they will be more or less legible
b) on black-and-white E Ink screens, they will appear in shades of gray, and on color screens, they will be colorful
