Cross-brand matchCross-brand matchSherwin-Williams SW 7542 translated into the Dunn-Edwards line
The closest Dunn-Edwards paint to Sherwin-Williams Naturel (SW 7542) is Birchwood DEC752, a delta-E of 1.35 away — close enough to swap without anyone noticing, though a large sample in daylight will show the difference.
Birchwood is 0.9 LRV points darker, so the room will read slightly deeper. Undertone reads as yellow undertone against yellow undertone, at chroma 11.0 and 11.0.
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.
