Acrilex to Duncan paint conversion chart

Every Acrilex paint with its closest Duncan equivalent, matched by CIEDE2000. 95 rows, sorted by name.

47 of the 95 Acrilex colours below have an equivalent in Duncan within ΔE 5, the distance at which a substitution stops being obvious on a painted model. 5 sit within ΔE 2 and are interchangeable outright. Across the whole range the typical distance is ΔE 5.1. The 48 gaps are not spread evenly: 10 of them are blues, so that is the corner of the Acrilex range Duncan does not answer.
