The closest Sherwin-Williams paint to Vista Paint Japonica (0983) is Adventure Orange SW 6655, a delta-E of 2.18 away — the nearest Sherwin-Williams makes, and near enough for most rooms, but it is not an exact copy.

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.
