Vista Paint 8438 translated into the PPG line
The closest PPG paint to Vista Paint Castle Dale (8438) is Artillery 1008-6, a delta-E of 1.73 away — close enough to swap without anyone noticing, though a large sample in daylight will show the difference.
Artillery is 1 LRV points lighter, so the room will read slightly brighter. Undertone reads as yellow cast against yellow cast, at chroma 5.2 and 6.3.
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.
