Vista Paint 1259 translated into the Valspar line
The closest Valspar paint to Vista Paint Eyeshadow (1259) is Super Nova 4004-9A, a delta-E of 1.89 away — close enough to swap without anyone noticing, though a large sample in daylight will show the difference.
Super Nova is 2 LRV points lighter, so the room will read slightly brighter. Undertone reads as blue undertone against violet undertone, at chroma 7.4 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.
