Using Artkal S65 Canary in a design

Artkal ST4 Transparent Yellow is only ΔE 2.8 away, so on a fused piece the two read as one color. If you run short of Canary, that is the swap; if you want two distinct shades side by side, pick something further apart.

Across brands, Hama has the closest stand-in (Hama 43, ΔE 1.7) and Nabbi the furthest (Nabbi N21, ΔE 6.2). Nabbi's palette is small (30 colors), which limits its matches.
