Cross-brand matchCross-brand matchVista Paint 8511 translated into the Behr line
The closest Behr paint to Vista Paint Soft Moccasin (8511) is Mesa 320F-5, a delta-E of 1.73 away — close enough to swap without anyone noticing, though a large sample in daylight will show the difference.
Mesa is 4 LRV points lighter, so the room will read slightly brighter. Undertone reads as yellow against yellow, at chroma 25.8 and 25.2.
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.
