Pantone™ PMS 517 C

The appearance of Pantone PMS 517 C can change based on the surface texture where it is applied. Matte or eggshell textures can make PMS 517 C appear softer and more muted, while glossier finishes tend to enhance the brightness and perceived chroma. Textured surfaces can create additional shadows and variation in reflectivity, sometimes causing PMS 517 C to look darker or less even. For brand consistency, preview the color on a physical sample that matches your intended substrate and finish before full production.

Pantone PMS 517 C is a light, muted violet with a high light reflectance value. Lighter colors like PMS 517 C may require careful surface preparation and may show substrate variations more once applied. Depending on the substrate and prior coatings, you may need multiple coats to achieve uniform coverage and accurate brand appearance. Testing coverage on your chosen material and ensuring an even base color will help you reach the target result.

The safety data sheet (SDS) for Pantone PMS 517 C paint is based on the type of paint or product format, not the color code. To access the correct SDS, visit the MyPerfectColor SDS library and select the specific product type you will order in PMS 517 C (for example, spray paint, epoxy, or house paint). If you have questions about which SDS applies, contact MyPerfectColor for guidance before purchasing.

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

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 517 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.
