Vista Paint 0500 translated into the Behr line
The closest Behr paint to Vista Paint Bowman Blue (0500) is Crater Lake BXC-81, a delta-E of 1.55 away — close enough to swap without anyone noticing, though a large sample in daylight will show the difference.
Crater Lake is 1 LRV points lighter, so the room will read slightly brighter. Undertone reads as teal undertone against teal undertone, at chroma 8.7 and 8.4.
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.
