Convert Sulky Rayon to another brand
All Sulky Rayon charts →About the Sulky Rayon 40 range
With 289 colors, Sulky Rayon 40 leans toward reds and greens, with a smaller set of yellows and 16 neutral shades for lettering and outlines. 1001 Bright White is the lightest color, 1005 Black the darkest, and 1246 Orange Flame (#ff0000) the most vivid. Compared with Isacord 40, 62% of the line matches closely, and 60% matches Madeira Polyneon 40. That is enough to run most designs written for those brands with only minor changes. Being rayon, it has a noticeable shine, so a color matched from a polyester brand will look a touch brighter once it is stitched.
