Clear vs Pure White
Where Clear belongs to Jotun's range, Pure White is a Sherwin-Williams color. Hue-wise, Clear belongs to the beige family and Pure White to the beige-greige family. They have nearly identical light reflectance values (86 vs 84), so they'll read as similarly Light in most lighting conditions. Both lean warm, so they'll behave similarly in mixed or changing light conditions. The ΔE 5.0 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.

Digital color is approximate. These simulations are generated from the manufacturer's hex values and overlaid on grayscale room photos — your screen's calibration, brightness, and viewing angle all affect how they render. Before committing to either color, test physical samples in your own space under the light you actually live with.
