Vista Paint Gray Whale Cove 8247 on a wall, hex #72767D
Dunn-Edwards Vulcan DE6341 on a wall, hex #6C757D

The closest Dunn-Edwards paint to Vista Paint Gray Whale Cove (8247) is Vulcan DE6341, a delta-E of 2.12 away — the nearest Dunn-Edwards makes, and near enough for most rooms, but it is not an exact copy.

Vulcan is 0.6 LRV points darker, so the room will read slightly deeper. Undertone reads as blue cast against blue cast, at chroma 5.8 and 4.4.

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.
