Vista Paint 0686 translated into the Dutch Boy line
The closest Dutch Boy paint to Vista Paint Outerspace (0686) is Mellow Blue DCP-0468, a delta-E of 10.55 away — the closest Dutch Boy has, and far enough away that you should sample it before committing.
Mellow Blue is 10.6 LRV points lighter, so the room will read slightly brighter. Undertone reads as green cast against teal undertone, at chroma 5.0 and 12.9.
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.
