Buffed Plum in Dutch Boy

Vista Paint 1317 translated into the Dutch Boy line

Vista Paint Buffed Plum 1317 on a wall, hex #B1B1BB
Dutch Boy Dusky Mood DCP-1318 on a wall, hex #A6ACB8

The closest Dutch Boy paint to Vista Paint Buffed Plum (1317) is Dusky Mood DCP-1318, a delta-E of 3.3 away — the nearest Dutch Boy makes, and near enough for most rooms, but it is not an exact copy.

Dusky Mood is 3.9 LRV points darker, so the room will read slightly deeper. Undertone reads as blue cast against violet cast, at chroma 6.9 and 5.4.

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.
