Cross-brand matchCross-brand matchVista Paint 0549 translated into the Sherwin-Williams line
The closest Sherwin-Williams paint to Vista Paint Emu (0549) is Gauntlet Gray SW 7019, a delta-E of 2.44 away — the nearest Sherwin-Williams makes, and near enough for most rooms, but it is not an exact copy.
Gauntlet Gray is 0.6 LRV points darker, so the room will read slightly deeper. Undertone reads as yellow cast against true neutral, at chroma 3.6 and 2.5.
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.
