Pantone™ PMS 5315 C

Pantone PMS 5315 C references a color standard for visual brand consistency but does not define the exact sheen, material, or process used on existing products or surfaces. Because Pantone codes do not account for finish or substrate differences, matching PMS 5315 C to a pre-painted item for touch-up purposes is not recommended. The result may appear visibly different due to these uncontrolled factors. For best results, use PMS 5315 C as a target for new, uniform branding applications rather than for correcting or blending into prior coatings.

If your project requires PMS 5315 C on a tight timeline, expedited production options can be selected at checkout. Choosing expedited service may reduce the processing time for your order. If you have a firm deadline for your branding or display needs, it is recommended to contact MyPerfectColor before ordering to confirm we can meet your schedule for PMS 5315 C.

The appearance of PMS 5315 C can shift across different materials because each substrate absorbs and reflects paint differently. Surface texture, reflectivity, and absorption all play a role in how the final color is perceived. For brand-critical or multi-material projects, it is best to evaluate PMS 5315 C samples directly on the same material that will be used in your finished display or component to ensure consistent results.

PMS 5315 C is a light, muted lavender-gray. While it is less vivid than highly saturated colors, its lightness means coverage may be affected by the color and condition of the substrate. For uniform brand results, especially over contrasting surfaces, consider using an appropriate undercoat and be prepared to apply more than one coat. This approach helps achieve even coverage and accurate visual impact for branding, displays, or prototypes using PMS 5315 C.

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 5315 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 5315 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.
