Equivalent Paints - Part One
When we decided to delve into the world of reels and video content, we thought to ourselves, what kind of content would the hobby and gaming community like to see? That, paired with Kath’s experimentation with clever, quirky video transitions, resulted in the ‘Equivalent Paints’ series available on our Instagram, Tiktok and Youtube channels.
We have now gathered quite the collection of Equivalent Paints reels, which is a challenge to keep up with, and thus, the Equivalent Paints Blog has been born, giving you a page to reference the closest equivalents for your favourite paint brands and colours. We have added some bonus recommendations, including paints that haven’t been included in the videos, such as air equivalents and other brands.
In this blog, you’ll find a summary of the closest equivalent paints we have covered so far. Please note that these are closest equivalents and may not be exact matches.
The paints have been arranged alphabetically to make finding the colours easy.
