Pantone™ PMS 2395 C

Safety guidance and VOC levels for PMS 2395 C depend on the specific paint product and format you select, such as spray paint or liquid coatings. Always review the Safety Data Sheet (SDS) for the product you are ordering and follow recommended ventilation, protective equipment, and handling practices. Proper surface preparation, application, and cleanup help ensure a safe environment and compliance with any local requirements.

Using a primer with PMS 2395 C is recommended when painting over bare, absorbent, or uneven surfaces to promote adhesion and even color appearance. Highly saturated colors like PMS 2395 C often benefit from a primer to help achieve full coverage, especially on light or patchy substrates. If you are unsure whether your project requires a primer, consider substrate type and the desired finish, and refer to any primer guidance provided for your selected paint type.

Yes, the finish or sheen you choose can make PMS 2395 C appear different even when matched to the correct color code. Gloss finishes will make PMS 2395 C look brighter and more saturated, while matte finishes can mute the vibrance and darken the appearance. When comparing samples or specifying for a brand-critical project, always evaluate PMS 2395 C in the intended finish and lighting to set accurate expectations for the final look.

Proper preparation is essential for applying PMS 2395 C to metal or powder-coated components. Scuffing and thoroughly cleaning the surface improves adhesion and consistency. Existing coatings, substrate texture, and finish gloss can all impact the appearance and vibrance of PMS 2395 C. For brand-sensitive or highly visible work, evaluate a sample on your actual part to ensure the result meets expectations before full production.

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 2395 C. MyPerfectColor uses an acrylic enamel which is a fast-drying durable coating suitable for interior or exterior use.

While MyPerfectColor can provide PMS 2395 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.
