Temperate Taupe in Valspar

Sherwin-Williams SW 6037 translated into the Valspar line

Sherwin-Williams Temperate Taupe SW 6037 on a wall, hex #BFB1AA
Valspar Seagull Beach 1002-10B on a wall, hex #C5B6AE

The closest Valspar paint to Sherwin-Williams Temperate Taupe (SW 6037) is Seagull Beach 1002-10B, a delta-E of 2 away — the nearest Valspar makes, and near enough for most rooms, but it is not an exact copy.

Seagull Beach is 2.8 LRV points lighter, so the room will read slightly brighter. Undertone reads as orange undertone against orange cast, at chroma 7.2 and 6.6.

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.
