The closest Valspar paint to Vista Paint Pantry Plum (7229) is Hematite 4006-2C, a delta-E of 3.32 away — the nearest Valspar makes, and near enough for most rooms, but it is not an exact copy.

Light reflectance is effectively identical, 7.0 against 7.0. Undertone reads as blue cast against blue cast, at chroma 3.4 and 5.8.

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.
