The closest PPG paint to Vista Paint French Sonnet (7891) is Sausalito 1209-2, a delta-E of 1.89 away — close enough to swap without anyone noticing, though a large sample in daylight will show the difference.

Sausalito is 1 LRV points lighter, so the room will read slightly brighter. Undertone reads as yellow against yellow, at chroma 17.5 and 19.2.

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.
