PPG 1180-1 translated into the Dutch Boy line
The closest Dutch Boy paint to PPG Violet Vapor (1180-1) is Stardust Ballroom DCP-1308, a delta-E of 1.79 away — close enough to swap without anyone noticing, though a large sample in daylight will show the difference.
Stardust Ballroom is 3.4 LRV points darker, so the room will read slightly deeper. Undertone reads as purple cast against purple cast, at chroma 4.2 and 5.4.
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.
