Citadel to Pro Acryl conversion chart

41 of 165 Citadel colors have a Pro Acryl equivalent within a visible-match tolerance. 6 are near-identical.

How this was made, and what it can't tell you

Every value comes from the manufacturer's own published chart or swatch — nothing here is estimated by eye. Matches are computed with ΔE2000, the standard measure of how different two colors look to a human.

What it cannot capture: opacity, finish and pigment behavior. Two paints can measure identically and still behave differently over black, or dry to a different sheen. Treat a match as a strong starting point, not a promise — and where a row says no close match, that is the honest answer: buy the original.

≤ 1.5 near-identical ≤ 3 very close ≤ 5 close > 5 no close match
