Cross-brand matchCross-brand matchBehr HDC-SM14-8 translated into the Vista Paint line
The closest Vista Paint paint to Behr Floating Blue (HDC-SM14-8) is Exotic Port 7385, a delta-E of 1.84 away — close enough to swap without anyone noticing, though a large sample in daylight will show the difference.
Exotic Port is 2 LRV points darker, so the room will read slightly deeper. Undertone reads as teal undertone against teal undertone, at chroma 9.6 and 9.0.
Codes are not transferable between manufacturers and no brand publishes a conversion table, so every figure here is measured from the published hex values rather than taken from a chart.
