Acrylic equivalent to Hu 153

30 September 2012, 20:43

I'm currently building Airfixs p-51d and instructions call for humbrol 153 Insignia Red.

my problem is thats only available in enamel and i use acrylics.

Can anyone suggest an acrylic paint?

My conversion chart (iModelKit) gives Vallejo 70.597 as an equivalent of Humbrol HU153

I get that same result on my Vallejo equivalent chart. It is the only accurate alternative to Humbrol 153 it seems.
