Cross-brand matchCross-brand matchPPG 1009-5 translated into the Dutch Boy line
The closest Dutch Boy paint to PPG Phoenix Fossil (1009-5) is Smoky Gray VS-9305, a delta-E of 3.48 away — the nearest Dutch Boy makes, and near enough for most rooms, but it is not an exact copy.
Smoky Gray is 1.8 LRV points lighter, so the room will read slightly brighter. Undertone reads as yellow cast against true neutral, at chroma 4.5 and 1.9.
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.
