Pantone™ PMS 1795 C

Ordering a paint matched to Pantone PMS 1795 C means you are requesting a color formulated to visually match the Pantone PMS 1795 C reference under standard lighting. A Pantone PMS code specifies a standardized color target, not a ready-made formula, specific finish, or coating process. The result is a paint designed to approximate the visual appearance of PMS 1795 C, but differences in sheen, substrate, or lighting may affect final appearance. If brand approval is critical, always confirm color in your actual setting before launching production.

Primer use for Pantone PMS 1795 C depends on your surface, the chosen paint type, and your project's performance requirements. Applying PMS 1795 C to light or porous substrates usually benefits from a primer to promote adhesion and provide a uniform base. Highly saturated reds like PMS 1795 C may also need multiple coats for complete coverage. Review your substrate and paint type for primer recommendations before ordering to achieve consistent, brand-accurate results.

To accurately assess if your sample matches Pantone PMS 1795 C, always evaluate the paint once it has fully dried or cured. Make comparisons under the lighting conditions where the project will be viewed and on the same substrate intended for final application. Differences in finish (matte, gloss) and lighting can shift how PMS 1795 C appears, so align these conditions for the most reliable approval process.

Each spray can of Pantone PMS 1795 C typically covers about 20 to 25 square feet per coat on smooth, primed surfaces. However, because PMS 1795 C is a highly saturated red with lower hiding power, you may need more than one coat for uniform coverage, especially over light or contrasting backgrounds. Consider the number of coats, surface texture, and substrate color when estimating how many cans you need for your project.

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.

While MyPerfectColor can provide PMS 1795 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.
