Extra White
Sherwin-Williams
SW 7006
Extra White is a bright, cool-leaning white with a whisper of blue that reads crisp and gallery-clean. It is the default trim and ceiling white for cool palettes, modern interiors, and anywhere a warm white would muddy icy grays and blues. Against Pure White it looks noticeably sharper; against Alabaster the difference is stark.

What is the Benjamin Moore equivalent of Extra White?
The closest Benjamin Moore match for Extra White is White Christmas 872 (#ECEEEA). No cross-brand match is exact, because each brand mixes its own pigment formulas. Always confirm with a physical sample before specifying a substitute.
Is Extra White warm or cool?
Extra White is a cool white. The faint blue undertone keeps it crisp, and at an LRV of approximately 86 it is among the brightest whites in the deck. In strong natural light it can verge on stark, which is the point in modern schemes and a problem in cozy ones. Use it to sharpen cool grays and blues; with warm beiges it creates a clinical contrast most clients do not want.
Why does Extra White look different on screen than on the wall?
Screens emit light while paint reflects it, so a hex code cannot capture how lighting, sheen, and surrounding colors shift paint in a real room. Treat #EEEFEA as accurate for digital design work, and use physical samples for final approval.
What LRV does Extra White have?
Extra White has a Light Reflectance Value of approximately 86, meaning it reflects about 86% of visible light. That places it among lighter colors that keep rooms feeling open and bright.
