Sample Benjamin Moore Alabaster OC-129 beside the fixed finishes, in the intended orientation and under normal room lighting. The trial should settle two Alabasters, two different color decisions . Alabaster OC-129 has a pink-white identity that should not inherit the warm-white advice written for SW-7008.

Why the pink-beige stone and ivory fabric relationship matters

Pink-beige stone offers a reason to consider that blush, but the authentic Benjamin Moore sample must establish the actual relationship.

Alabaster has an LRV of 85.08; Sherwin-Williams Alabaster SW-7008 is 82. The difference is 3.08 points, with Alabaster returning more light under the reference measurement.

Keep the comparison fair

Label the Alabaster board and hold it directly against each permanent white, with equal lighting and orientation. Include the intended trim finish in the last trial. The approved sample should resolve the actual white-to-white boundaries, rather than simply look pleasant on blank paper.

Approve the actual coating and the least favorable view

Specify OC-129 on the sample and judge its pink note; do not transfer advice about SW-7008. The undertones and neighboring colors covers that related choice.

Keep the approved dried board with the complete Benjamin Moore OC-129 product and finish specification. Follow the actual coating instructions for application, drying and preparation; the color name does not settle those requirements. The daylight and evening-light checks covers that related choice. Before ordering samples, compare room-planning features in the paint color visualizer roundup.
