why my whites are looking grey in Photoshop?
Hello,
I am trying to change the colour of a stick to white but instead of turning out white it is turning out gray colour once i change the option to hue or colour (I have to change to hue or colour so the texture looks matched).
Attached is a screenshot.
The left side sticks is the source colour/object i am selecting the dropper from after clicking solid colour adjustment layer.
The big stick on the right is where i am "placing the colour".
Instead of white like the sticks on the left, results turn out grey for some reason (are circled in red).
It might be hard to see without zooming in but i am referring to a grey area inside the red circled area.

When i try to just pick the colour pure white and do it this way, it still comes out grey and nowhere near white colur.
Doea anyone have any advise please?:)
