Pantone™ PMS 150 C

PMS 150 C uses a specific code format where the letter suffix, such as 'C' for coated, identifies the exact Pantone reference. Confirm the complete code from your brand guidelines or design specification, as ordering PMS 150 C versus PMS 150 U can result in color differences. Always refer to official documentation or standards when specifying Pantone PMS 150 C to ensure alignment with brand requirements and avoid mismatches.

Paint type selection for PMS 150 C should match how and where the finished surface will be used. For brand displays or graphics exposed to outdoor weather, order a paint formulated for exterior use to help preserve color and performance. For indoor brand environments or prototyping, interior grade paint is often appropriate. Confirm the intended application to choose the right type for PMS 150 C and consult your team if you have specific durability or exposure needs.

The appearance of PMS 150 C can shift based on lighting conditions, such as sunlight, fluorescent, or LED sources. Color perception is influenced by the type and intensity of light where the project is displayed. For consistent brand results, always evaluate PMS 150 C using a physical Pantone reference and a painted sample under the lights where it will be seen. This helps ensure approval and avoids unwanted surprises after installation.

If your project is highly visible, large in scale, or part of a formal brand approval process, sample PMS 150 C on the actual substrate first. Sampling is also recommended when using PMS 150 C in new environments or lighting, or when uniformity across materials is critical. A real paint sample avoids surprises and helps confirm that the color meets expectations under real conditions before committing to a full order.

Unfortunately, no.

Some manufacturers specify Pantone colors as touch up for their products, but Pantone does not work well as a proxy for a touch-up solution (for a litany of reasons such as it doesn't include sheen and Pantone color tolerances are not tight enough for touch up). When we match Pantone colors we are matching to a swatch in a Pantone book - not to your product.

The only way we can provide a touch-up solution for your product is for you send us a part. We would use the part to create a touch-up grade match. Unfortunately, there isn't an effective way to 'spec' the color well enough to produce a touch up without the part.

To make spray paint matched to Pantone PMS 150 C. MyPerfectColor uses an acrylic enamel which is a fast-drying durable coating suitable for interior or exterior use. MyPerfectColor custom spray paint enables you to conveniently achieve a professional spray-smooth finish in any color in any sheen. It sticks well to most surfaces including metal, plastics, powder-coatings, cabinets and primed or previously painted wood.

The 11oz spray will cover about 20 square feet per coat. Keep in mind that it is difficult to gauge how much spray you'll need as it is highly dependent on how it is applied. It is better to have too much than run short.

While MyPerfectColor can provide PMS 150 C in paint, we don't provide any crossover information. We've found that every paint company offers its own unique selection of colors and rarely does a color have an exact equivalent in another company's color collection, especially for a color collection like Pantone which is designed for bright colors and inks.
