Cross-brand matchCross-brand matchVista Paint 8501 translated into the PPG line
The closest PPG paint to Vista Paint Brown Mountain (8501) is Tweed 1098-6, a delta-E of 2.79 away — the nearest PPG makes, and near enough for most rooms, but it is not an exact copy.
Light reflectance is effectively identical, 20.0 against 20.0. Undertone reads as yellow against yellow, at chroma 24.0 and 26.7.
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.
