October Sky in Valspar

Vista Paint 8250 translated into the Valspar line

Vista Paint October Sky 8250 on a wall, hex #BCBFC1
Valspar Gravity 4005-1B on a wall, hex #C3C6C7

The closest Valspar paint to Vista Paint October Sky (8250) is Gravity 4005-1B, a delta-E of 2.58 away — the nearest Valspar makes, and near enough for most rooms, but it is not an exact copy.

Gravity is 6.1 LRV points lighter, so the room will read slightly brighter. Undertone reads as cool teal-gray against cool blue-gray, at chroma 1.2 and 1.5.

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.
