Grey white vs Frosty White
Grey white (RAL Classic) and Frosty White (Sherwin-Williams) come from different manufacturers. These are both greige-greys, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within greige-grey to land. The 5-point LRV gap — 72 for Frosty White vs 67 for Grey white — means Frosty White will open up a space more effectively. ΔE 3.3 means they're clearly different, but not dramatically so — they'd pair well in the same room. Below you'll find 1 real-room photo comparison where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.
Grey white vs Frosty White in Real Spaces
1 real room side by side. Grey white and Frosty White are close enough that the difference can be hard to judge from a chip alone — these photos show how each reads at scale, across different spaces and lighting conditions.
House
A full exterior is the most demanding test for a paint color — scale and outdoor light both amplify differences that seem small on a swatch. Frosty White has the edge in reflectance, which shows as a quiet sense of added space rather than an obvious contrast.

Grey white vs Frosty White Simulated Comparison
5 simulated room previews — drag the slider on each to see Grey white on one side and Frosty White on the other.
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.
