Cross-brand matchCross-brand matchDutch Boy DCP-0218 translated into the Valspar line
The closest Valspar paint to Dutch Boy Drifting Sand (DCP-0218) is Soulful Grey 6004-1B, a delta-E of 0.88 away — a direct substitute: on a wall the two are the same color.
Soulful Grey is 1 LRV points lighter, so the room will read slightly brighter. Undertone reads as yellow cast against yellow cast, at chroma 5.6 and 5.1.
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.
