The closest Valspar paint to Vista Paint Blue Dawn (7275) is Serenity 4005-7B, a delta-E of 2.56 away — the nearest Valspar makes, and near enough for most rooms, but it is not an exact copy.

Light reflectance is effectively identical, 67.0 against 67.0. Undertone reads as blue undertone against blue undertone, at chroma 10.6 and 9.3.

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.
