Cross-brand matchCross-brand matchValspar 5008-1C translated into the Dutch Boy line
The closest Dutch Boy paint to Valspar Sandy Sage (5008-1C) is Drifting Sand DCP-0218, a delta-E of 4.11 away — the closest Dutch Boy has, and far enough away that you should sample it before committing.
Drifting Sand is 1.3 LRV points darker, so the room will read slightly deeper. Undertone reads as yellow cast against yellow undertone, at chroma 5.1 and 9.0.
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.
