Finding a Behr Equivalent for Cascade White
If you love Benjamin Moore Cascade White but need a Behr alternative, you are not alone. This is one of the most common cross-brand paint matching searches, whether you are working with a painter who prefers Behr, your local store does not carry Benjamin Moore, or you simply want to compare prices across brands before committing.
Cascade White (OC-67) is a very light white with cool neutral undertones. A bright, clean white with the slightest cool lean. Between Chantilly Lace and Decorator's White. To find a good Behr match, we need a color that captures not just the right depth (LRV 90.12) but also that specific undertone character. That is where Delta E color science comes in.
We calculated the perceptual color distance between Cascade White and every Behr color using the CIE2000 Delta E formula, which measures how different two colors look to the human eye. A Delta E under 2 means most people cannot tell the colors apart. Between 2 and 4, you might notice a difference in certain lighting. Above 5, the difference is clearly visible side by side.
The good news: there is a strong Behr match for Cascade White. Ultra Pure White (PPU18-06) comes in with a Delta E of 2.2, which puts it in the "excellent match" range. Ultra Pure White is very close.

Undertone Comparison
Cascade White has cool neutral undertones. A bright, clean white with the slightest cool lean. Between Chantilly Lace and Decorator's White.
Ultra Pure White has true neutral undertones. Behr's cleanest, purest white. About as close to a true white as you'll find in any brand. No noticeable undertone.
The undertone difference is worth paying attention to. While they are close in overall appearance, the different undertones mean they may diverge in certain lighting. Cascade White's cool neutral quality may read differently than Ultra Pure White's true neutral character, especially in rooms with strong directional light or colored accents that could pull out one undertone more than the other. Test a sample in your specific room before committing.

Frequently Asked Questions
The closest Behr match for Cascade White (OC-67) is Ultra Pure White (PPU18-06) with a Delta E of 2.2, which rates as a "excellent match" match. Ultra Pure White is very close. Delta E measures perceptual color distance on a scale where under 2 means nearly identical, 2 to 4 means close with subtle differences, and over 5 means clearly noticeable.
No, they are not identical. Cascade White is a Benjamin Moore color with cool neutral undertones and an LRV of 90.12. Ultra Pure White is a Behr color with true neutral undertones and an LRV of 94. With a Delta E of 2.2, the difference is subtle and mainly visible in direct side-by-side comparison. Paint formulations differ between brands, so even colors with similar values can look slightly different due to pigment concentration, binders, and finish.
With a Delta E of 2.2, these colors are close enough to use in separate rooms of the same house without a jarring difference. However, avoid painting them on adjacent walls in the same room, as even subtle differences become apparent at a hard edge where two paints meet. For the smoothest result, use one brand consistently within each connected space and reserve the other brand for rooms that are visually separated.
There are several practical reasons to look for a Behr equivalent. Price differences between brands can be significant on large projects. Availability matters if your nearest paint store or home center specializes in Behr. Some painters have strong preferences for one brand's formula based on coverage, dry time, or workability. And if you are touching up existing Behr work, matching within the same brand gives you the best consistency for seamless results.
