Palomino Gold equivalent and alternatives

Looking for a substitute for Reaper Palomino Gold? These are the closest paints in each other brand on The Painters Desk. ✓ means a manufacturer or community conversion chart lists it as an equivalent; ≈ means it is the nearest swatch colour. ΔE is the colour difference between the two swatches: under about 6 is a close match, over about 15 is a loose one. Each brand shows its best match: chart-listed paints within ΔE 25, otherwise the nearest paint of the same type within ΔE 12. Swatches are estimates, so check the real paints before you commit.

Metallic matches

Palomino Gold is a metallic paint, so these are metallic and pearl paints only.

Non-metallic colours

The nearest non-metallic paint in each brand to Palomino Gold's swatch, for non-metallic metal (NMM) or a matt alternative. A different finish, so not a straight swap.

Every paint a conversion chart lists, however far its swatch is from Palomino Gold's, plus the 2 or 3 nearest swatches in every brand.
