Paint Equivalents

Mig to Golden paint conversion chart

Every Mig paint with its closest Golden equivalent, matched by CIEDE2000. 252 rows, sorted by name.

109 of the 252 Mig colours below have an equivalent in Golden within ΔE 5, the distance at which a substitution stops being obvious on a painted model. 14 sit within ΔE 2 and are interchangeable outright. Across the whole range the typical distance is ΔE 5.5. The 143 gaps are not spread evenly: 57 of them are yellows, so that is the corner of the Mig range Golden 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.

One side of this chart is a craft or fine-art range: what these matches promise, and where a craft bottle belongs on a model

Converting a one-coat range? Contrast, Speedpaint and Xpress rows need a tighter bracket than the rest of this table

Reverse: Golden → Mig

The reverse chart is a different answer, not this one upside down: how much of a range another really covers, in both directions
