Dutch Boy Kiara DCP-0005 on a wall, hex #F2ECDE

The closest Dutch Boy paint to Dunn-Edwards Tapering Light (DE5497) is Kiara DCP-0005, a delta-E of 4.01 away — the closest Dutch Boy has, and far enough away that you should sample it before committing.

Kiara is 4.4 LRV points darker, so the room will read slightly deeper. Undertone reads as yellow undertone against yellow undertone, at chroma 7.5 and 10.9.

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.
