I always use this site. It lets you choose the brands or type of number (RAL/FSxxxxx etc.) and shows which paints match.

So when I go out and buy a new kit and it only has only Testors paint numbers in the instructions (just an example), I can use this chart to compare paints I already have (Humbrol/Revell etc) with the testors numbers and saves me buying the exact same color from a different brand.
