FolkArt to P3 paint conversion chart

Every FolkArt paint with its closest P3 equivalent, matched by CIEDE2000. 435 rows, sorted by name.

194 of the 435 FolkArt colours below have an equivalent in P3 within ΔE 5, the distance at which a substitution stops being obvious on a painted model. 25 sit within ΔE 2 and are interchangeable outright. Across the whole range the typical distance is ΔE 5.3. The 241 gaps are not spread evenly: 47 of them are blues, so that is the corner of the FolkArt range P3 does not answer.

How close is close enough? Reading the ΔE column

Moving a whole recipe across takes more than one pot. These search the boxed sets each range is sold in.
