Pantone™ PMS 345 C

The durability of PMS 345 C spray paint depends on proper substrate preparation, the type of paint system selected, and the environment where it will be used. For best results, choose a paint type that meets your exposure needs, whether for indoor display or outdoor branding. Careful surface prep and the use of an appropriate primer and topcoat can extend performance. Exposure to weather, UV, and handling will all impact the longevity and appearance of the color. Confirm your finish and paint selection with MyPerfectColor to align with brand requirements and project conditions.

To maintain a uniform appearance with PMS 345 C over large surfaces, ensure you use consistent application techniques and tools. Plan your coat schedule so each layer overlaps smoothly and always mix or shake the paint thoroughly before beginning. Because lighter and more saturated Pantone PMS colors can show variation in hide, use enough coats to reach full coverage and avoid patchy spots. Ensure the substrate is clean, smooth, and primed as needed to support even application, and always test a small area first in your intended lighting and finish.

Always verify and specify the complete Pantone code, including the suffix 'C' for PMS 345 C, to ensure you are referencing the correct color standard for your brand or project. Pantone codes can include suffixes or series that affect the exact color target. Confirming the code helps avoid ordering errors and ensures the paint matches the intended reference as required by brand guidelines or designer instructions.

If you are unsure which paint type is most appropriate for PMS 345 C, contact MyPerfectColor with details about your substrate, application method, exposure conditions, and desired finish. Our team can guide you in choosing the best product to align with your branding and durability requirements, helping you achieve visually consistent results for your display or marketing installation.

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 345 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 345 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.
