Frosty White vs Kaolin
Where Frosty White belongs to Sherwin-Williams's range, Kaolin is a Tikkurila color. Frosty White reads as greige-grey, while Kaolin reads as beige-greige — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Kaolin (LRV 76) reflects noticeably more light than Frosty White (LRV 72), a difference of 4 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. At ΔE 2.4, these are close — the kind of difference that matters when choosing between them, but doesn't read strongly in a finished room.
