Unfortunately for some months now the chart does not launch through the webpage using Mozilla! Is anyone else facing the same problem?

the page is working for me in Chrome. I did a search for those two colors, unfortunately there is no direct match. What colors are you trying to replicate?

Without knowing directly, it sounds to me like you are looking for RLM 02 - Grau and German Red Brown.

Not sure if it will help, but Revell has a PDF on their site that lists color equivalents from Revell to Testors Model Master, Acryl and Polly S:

http://www.revell.com/support/paint-guide.html

Might give a starting point to work with for other paint lines.
