Pantone™ PMS 2945 C

PMS 2945 C is a highly saturated, cool blue that can look noticeably different under varying lighting. Light quality (such as daylight, LED, or fluorescent) can shift the color's depth and intensity. For critical brand or marketing work, always evaluate PMS 2945 C samples in the same lighting and conditions you expect for final display. This helps ensure correct brand appearance and reduces surprises after installation.

PMS 2945 C paint is intended for brand color reproduction for new components or displays, not for matching to an existing surface. For precise touch-up or field repair, a Pantone code is not enough, since the original finish, substrate, and aging can all affect appearance. The correct approach is to send a physical part or sample for a custom match if you require touch-up grade results or a direct match to an existing installation.

When you order PMS 2945 C in paint, you are requesting a paint mixed to visually match the PMS 2945 C color target as defined by the Pantone Matching System. This is a visual reference for color, not a formula or a guarantee of a specific manufacturing process, brand, or finish type. Actual results can vary depending on substrate, finish, and lighting, so always verify that a standard Pantone match suits your project requirements.

Ordering a standard PMS 2945 C paint match is appropriate for branding, marketing installations, displays, exhibits, signage, and prototypes where the Pantone color target is the reference standard. This approach is ideal when visual brand accuracy on new parts or surfaces is your main priority. If your project involves matching to existing finishes or multi-material assemblies, consider reviewing a physical sample before large-scale commits.

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 2945 C. MyPerfectColor uses an acrylic enamel which is a fast-drying durable coating suitable for interior or exterior use.

While MyPerfectColor can provide PMS 2945 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.
