Sherwin-Williams SW 6026 translated into the Dunn-Edwards line
The closest Dunn-Edwards paint to Sherwin-Williams River Rouge (SW 6026) is Ripe Plum DE6020, a delta-E of 4.19 away — the closest Dunn-Edwards has, and far enough away that you should sample it before committing.
Ripe Plum is 1.7 LRV points lighter, so the room will read slightly brighter. Undertone reads as pink against pink undertone, at chroma 15.7 and 12.8.
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.
