Frequently asked
What is the closest equivalent to Revell Brass/Messing?
The closest same-finish match is Vallejo Gold Brown at 81% color similarity.
What finish is Brass/Messing?
Brass/Messing is a metallic paint with a gold tone and a reflective finish. Because the shine comes from metal flake, a flat paint can match the color and still be wrong for the job, which is why cross-finish matches here are references rather than swaps.
