Pantone™ PMS 174 C

Safety and VOC guidelines for PMS 174 C paint depend on the specific product type and formulation you select. Always review the Safety Data Sheet (SDS) for your chosen format before use to confirm handling precautions and ventilation needs. Follow best practices for safe application, including personal protective equipment and appropriate workspace setup as described in the SDS.

When deciding between matte and gloss finishes for PMS 174 C, consider the effect of sheen on visual impact and lighting. Gloss finishes will intensify the color, creating deeper punch and saturation, but can introduce glare, especially under bright lights or when viewed up close. Matte finishes minimize reflections and work well for large areas or displays viewed at multiple angles, but can slightly mute the richness of PMS 174 C. Review your lighting environment and desired visibility when making your finish choice.

PMS 174 C is a standardized Pantone reference for brand consistency across materials. Reproducing PMS 174 C under license ensures that the color target is respected and that the paint is formulated to match Pantone's official standards. MyPerfectColor is authorized to match and reproduce Pantone PMS colors, which reduces risk of color drift in visual branding projects.

To order PMS 174 C paint, first choose the product format that best fits your application, such as spray paint, paint pen, or house paint. Next, select the desired sheen (matte, satin, gloss) and the required quantity. If your application needs specific handling or environmental considerations, select the appropriate options offered. Review your selections carefully to ensure accuracy before finishing your 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 174 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 174 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.
