SW equivalent to Revere Pewter and Edgecomb Gray?

I'd get SW to make the BM color if you want to follow his lead.

SW bought Duron I’m told. The painters I’ve used have all recommended Duron—unless you want BM-Revere Pewter

Here’s a description of it I found online

“Sherwin Williams Repose Gray is described as having a gray base with a subtle brown undertone. It also has a faint touch of purple. This color has an LRV of 60, which means it will bring a little light into the room, and might even make it feel a little larger”

Just get the BM paint. The cost of the paint itself is much cheaper than the labor, so in my opinion it's not worth it to have SW color match when the BM is not THAT much more expensive. It's not like you're talking about Farrow & Ball prices. We have had good experiences with BM Regal Select in eggshell finish. It has lasted years and still looks great and kids' fingerprints etc easily come off - esp with the magic eraser. And it's not a very "smelly" paint either - the new paint smell dissipates very quickly.

Color matching is not one of the options. If the painter and customer prefer SW/Duron, the only issue is finding the color. Trying SW Collonade Gray, Agreeable Gray and Repose Gray.

I think you’ll like Colonnade a lot. I must have tested 30 different colors (they know me at SW!). Repose is pretty but very blah on my walls. It looks great in my friend’s house though.
