Color conversion charts

I have a question, where can I find color conversions charts from WN oils to acrylic paints?
I have a project that I like but the instructions are for oils, and I don't use them.
Can anyone help me with this? Thanks. Lourdes

Re: Color conversion charts

Try their website - the paint websites/staff are often very helpful.

Re: Color conversion charts

Here's a link to their color charts:

http://www.winsornewton.com/resource...colour-charts/

When you get to the color charts, you can click on the color swatches for more information, such as Pigment number (or color index number).

Re: Color conversion charts

I agree, it would be best if you can obtain the pigment number and cross reference that. Be aware that there are even variations in the same pigment.....but they should be close.

Re: Color conversion charts

HI most of you will have forgotten me long ago, have been 'absent'. I also am trying to find a conversion chart fromacrylics to oils and have tried this one from you, loulop, but says this is no longer here. Does anyone else have anything to suggest?
Looks like there hasn't been anyone inhere for quite a while.
