CyberWombat's NASCAR Model Paint Cross-Reference

This is a chart that lists equivalent paints made by different manufacturers. I started it because I can't always find the right shade of paint for the model I want to construct. Obviously there are many more colors out there, and this is very much a work in progress.

This information was surveyed from the many decal sheets in my collection, and is not based on side-by-side comparisons. That's a "later" project! Although Metro colors are the "anchor" this site is not affiliated with them, nor should this be taken to be an endorsement of their products. Click on the header of each column for a link to the various manufacturer's home sites.
