Cross-brand matchCross-brand matchValspar 5003-2B translated into the Dunn-Edwards line
The closest Dunn-Edwards paint to Valspar Lush Sage (5003-2B) is Armored Steel DE6279, a delta-E of 2.17 away — the nearest Dunn-Edwards makes, and near enough for most rooms, but it is not an exact copy.
Light reflectance is effectively identical, 18.0 against 17.9. Undertone reads as yellow-green undertone against yellow-green undertone, at chroma 8.3 and 8.3.
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.
