SW pure white vs SW extra white
Comments (51)Amy Sivley, we had our cabinets painted Snowbound with extra white on all the trim. They look like the same color. Its a very stark white. in certain lights the snowbound has a pink hue & the extra white has a blue hue. way to bright for me but I’m stuck with it we did Pure white on our ceilings & love it. I wish i would have picked something that doesnt blind me when I walk in the kitchen. all our trim throughout the house is bright white & Im trying to pick a white for the walls & having trouble.we did Cedar Key in a few rooms & that looks great but I want to try white....See MoreSW Alabaster or SW Dover White for kitchen cabinets??

Comments (6)These colours are all from the same Hue Family neighbourhood. Cold Foam and Steam sit between SW Pure White & SW Alabaster in terms of Value (lightness) and Chroma (colourfulness) They both have less Chroma than BM White Dove which read as ‘too yellow’ for you. That makes them less colourful than White Dove. Behr Whisper White is lighter than BM White Dove but has the same quantity of Chroma (colourfulness)...See Morewhite exterior paint - SW snowbound vs Alabaster vs Oyster White
Comments (8)I know this is an older post but if this can help you or someone . . . ..Of the three colors mentioned, Oyster White will give you the look you're after and will look good in bright light and in more dull blue light during winter also. It would look good with Iron Ore and with a more black paint from SW such as Black Magic or Tricorn Black. Alabaster on an exterior can look great but it's much brighter than Oyster White. Snowbound, while one of my personal faves, can have some funny pink undertones at times. As always, test test test! Natural lighting and reflections from trees/ water/ other houses will affect a paint's appearance....See Morejaja06
