Conversion Notes
Madeira 0209 maintains the red-orange balance better than some alternatives and is the recommended close match for designs where the specific red component of 486 matters. Madeira's colorfastness in vivid red-oranges is good — an important consideration for display pieces, since saturated red-orange can be among the more UV-sensitive colors. A reliable substitute for fox fur, flame effects, and autumn foliage palettes.
