Dunn-Edwards Shark DE5771 on a wall, hex #CADCDE

The closest Dunn-Edwards paint to PPG Water Lily (1150-2) is Shark DE5771, a delta-E of 1.54 away — close enough to swap without anyone noticing, though a large sample in daylight will show the difference.

Shark is 4 LRV points darker, so the room will read slightly deeper. Undertone reads as cool teal-gray against cool teal-gray, at chroma 6.4 and 6.4.

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.
