Best Sherwin Williams white color for cabinet

I am planning to repaint my cabinet into white. It was oak and painted to white 10 years ago (by the previous owner). But I really do not like the way it was done. It has the brush tracks and the color is dull & yellowish.
I want to repaint it. Any recommendations on the paint color I should choose? I want some bright white but not too shining.
I am using Sherwin Williams to paint other rooms so would like to use the same brand for cabinets as well.
I am attaching a picture here. I know there is a lot to be done - backsplash, countertop, painting, etc. etc.

Which Sherwin Williams paint is best for trim work and cabinets?
Comments (8)Thanks.:-) I'm sure the painter will probably have a certain primer he uses, but we can request something different too. We don't have to supply the paint but need to let our builder know which colors/finishes we want and where. It will all come through Sherwin Williams where I guess they have an account. I was thinking I had read something about Sherwin Williams finishes being shinier than others. Like their satin is like others semi-gloss. Is that right? I tried to use the search feature for this info with no luck. Thanks for any help.:-)...See MoreSherwin William Alabaster Trim & Cabinets with a true white ceiling??
Comments (2)It should look fine. Most people don't notice ceilings, and it's fine if it's a little off. Worst case you hate it and you can repaint the ceiling later on....See MoreBest paint brand/type for Sherwin-Williams paint color.
Comments (1)Sherwin Williams is a decent paint. I have used both it and Benjamin Moore. Personally, I will never buy Benjamin Moore again, but many love it and use it all the time. You also need to be aware that bases are different for paint brands, so you may not get the same exact color in another brand, so its better to go with the Sherwin Williams. Reviews are not always accurate. A paint job depends upon the prep that goes into the project. Also what kind of paint is on the wall right now. Is it the type that needs a primer? Flat paint is less washable than matte. Matte paint is less washable than eggshell. Eggshell is less washable than satin, and etc. The sheen you pick is dependent on whether you have little ones that often put hands on walls, and will need to clean it often. It is also dependent on the condition of your walls. Anything with a sheen will show wall imperfections more. Flat or matte, will not show the imperfections so much. Also, I would want some type of washability in bathrooms and kitchens and in my case, my hallway, which always seems to have finger prints for some reason....See MoreWhat white trim color goes with Sherwin Williams White Duck (SW 7010)?
Comments (26)I'm looking for a neutral gray/off-white with an LRV of 70-75 that doesn't read purple (many grays and grieges do!), blue, or pink. I don't want a throwback to "builder's taupe." And after seeing White Duck on the wall in my house, I'd definitely characterize it as tan. In photos online, it looks like a warm off-white with a hint of green. In my house, it's brownish beige. I might have liked it 20 years ago....See More
