PMS 5455 C is a Pantone Matching System color, recognized within the Pantone PMS collection for its cool, subdued character. The color conveys a vibe that is calm, technical, understated, clean, and low-key. With a light reflectance value of 66.01, it occupies the lighter end of the blue spectrum, resulting in a balanced and approachable appearance suited to environments where subtlety and clarity are priorities.
PMS 5455 C is light in appearance, supported by its LRV of 66.01. This color expresses a distinctly cool undertone with a muted blue base. The chroma is low, contributing to reduced intensity and a soft, desaturated quality. The undertone leans towards blue with a subtle gray influence that tempers vibrancy. This color may show increased sensitivity to finish; gloss or semi-gloss can add perceived saturation, while matte appears more subdued.
PMS 5455 C is effective where a gentle, reassuring blue is needed to project calm professionalism without overpowering the visual field. It performs well in signage, displays, or branded spaces where a restrained blue supports clarity and focus. Care should be taken to evaluate the color on the chosen substrate and under representative lighting, as lighting shifts can cause this muted blue to appear cooler or more neutral than anticipated. Compared to more saturated or darker PMS blues, PMS 5455 C offers greater legibility on light backgrounds but may require thoughtful contrast management when used with light grays or whites.

For PMS 5455 C, use the same lighting, substrate, and finish for all samples you compare. Make sure the coatings are fully dry and cured before making your final color judgment. Reviewing samples side by side under consistent, representative lighting reduces the risk of approval errors and helps ensure brand alignment, since PMS 5455 C can appear different depending on gloss and environmental conditions.
Uniformity for PMS 5455 C is best achieved with careful surface prep, consistent application technique, and planned coating schedule. Apply wet-on-wet where possible to avoid lap marks, and maintain recommended film thickness with each coat. Since finish affects the perceived color of PMS 5455 C, check test patches under final site lighting to confirm consistency before full coverage. Additional coats may be needed on lighter substrates for best results.
Always specify the exact Pantone PMS code, including all suffixes (like the 'C' in PMS 5455 C), when ordering paint. The name 'PMS 5455 C' refers to one precise color in the Pantone system, and omitting the code or using a similar name may lead to incorrect color fulfillment. The Pantone code is a standardized target and not a guarantee of a specific paint formula or finish, so be sure to match all relevant details for accurate brand results.

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 5455 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 5455 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.
