Vista Paint 0617 translated into the Sherwin-Williams line
The closest Sherwin-Williams paint to Vista Paint John's Blue (0617) is Cosmos SW 6528, a delta-E of 2.62 away — the nearest Sherwin-Williams makes, and near enough for most rooms, but it is not an exact copy.
Cosmos is 1.9 LRV points lighter, so the room will read slightly brighter. Undertone reads as blue against blue, at chroma 16.2 and 18.0.
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.
