ΔE 10.5, fair: the same colour family, but not a straight swap. Cobalt Teal is a little lighter than Caribbean Ocean. They are different kinds of paint: Army Painter Caribbean Ocean is a one-coat contrast-style paint and Golden Cobalt Teal is an opaque base/layer paint, so they won’t behave the same on the model even where the colour is close.
Only where an exact match doesn’t matter, such as a new unit or a highlight. Fair match (ΔE 10). Cobalt Teal is a little lighter than Caribbean Ocean. They are different kinds of paint.
The same difference applies the other way round: Caribbean Ocean is a little darker.
ΔE is the colour difference between our two swatch estimates: under about 6 is close, over about 15 is loose. Real paints also differ in finish, coverage and how they thin, so test before you commit.
