Millennium™ Color System

The Millennium Color System by Color Guild ushers in a new era of color to the world. We call it "Colors Of The Future" -- a palette of 1,488 colors (192 unique families) that leads the way to tomorrow. The palette is beautifully balanced. The artistic and orderly arrangement of colors makes it exceptionally easy to zero in on your colors of choice. For architects, designers, color stylists, professional painters, and do-it-yourselfers, Millennium does, indeed, usher in a new era of color.

This color system is separated into six groups:

Colors in White
Clear Colors
Muted Colors
Shaded Colors
Neutral Shades
Bright Accents

The colors displayed in these groups were created entirely with table background colors. To see the colors, you will need to use a browser that displays colored backgrounds in tables, such as Microsoft Internet Explorer. The optimal color palette setting for your video display is 24 bit (16M colors) or higher.

Light reflectance values (LRV) and Munsell notations are given for each color. Two additional notations are listed with the color when applicable:

(Int. Only) for those colors that have low UV resistance and,
(Low Hide) for those colors that are inherently more transparent.

Important! To achieve true color fidelity and satisfactory hiding, colors designated as "low hide" will require an opaque primer and multiple finish coats.

Please Note: These computer video simulations only approximate the dry paint color. The actual color will vary depending on the vehicle, gloss level, application technique, film thickness variances, substrate and light source. For critical color matches, a sample of paint should be applied, allowed to dry and checked before proceeding with the entire job.

Thanks: These colors were converted from Munsell values to HEX using the CGSD Corporation Color Science Library. Special thanks to Roy Latham, and Gerald Chu for their assistance with the conversion.
