Vista Paint 0638 translated into the PPG line

Vista Paint Watery Sea 0638 on a wall, hex #8DBFE6
PPG Viva La Bleu 1242-3 on a wall, hex #97BEE2

The closest PPG paint to Vista Paint Watery Sea (0638) is Viva La Bleu 1242-3, a delta-E of 3.32 away — the nearest PPG makes, and near enough for most rooms, but it is not an exact copy.

Viva La Bleu is 1 LRV points lighter, so the room will read slightly brighter. Undertone reads as blue against blue, at chroma 22.6 and 25.5.

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.
