Pantone™ PMS 5605 C

When specifying or ordering Pantone PMS 5605 C paint, always provide the full code, including any suffix like 'C' (which represents the coated version) to avoid errors. The color name 'Pantone PMS 5605 C' and the code together identify a specific target in the Pantone Matching System. Without the correct code and suffix, you may receive a different variation, finish, or even a completely different color. Double-check your brand or project documentation and confirm the full code with all suffixes before placing your order to ensure accurate results.

When applying Pantone PMS 5605 C paint to plastics or other low energy materials, adhesion depends on the type of substrate and surface preparation. Many plastics require specialized primers or adhesion promoters to achieve reliable results. Always conduct a test on your actual plastic before moving to full production to confirm both color appearance and adhesion. Contact your coating supplier for substrate-specific advice, and allow for adjustments based on test outcomes. This ensures your final finish with Pantone PMS 5605 C meets brand and durability standards.

Pantone PMS 5605 C is a very dark, muted green and can appear differently depending on material, surface gloss, and lighting. While MyPerfectColor creates an accurate match to the Pantone standard, slight differences can arise across substrates and finishes. Factors such as matte versus gloss, substrate color, and ambient lighting can shift the perceived hue or depth. For critical brand applications, review samples of PMS 5605 C as produced on your specific material and under project lighting to confirm visual consistency before proceeding with large-scale production.

To achieve a smooth, consistent finish with Pantone PMS 5605 C spray paint, apply several light coats rather than a single heavy coat. Allow each coat to dry according to general spray paint guidelines before applying the next layer. This process helps minimize runs, uneven color, and texture issues, especially with deep or muted colors like PMS 5605 C. Always test first on a sample and evaluate under final lighting whenever possible to confirm that the achieved color meets expectations.

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.

While MyPerfectColor can provide PMS 5605 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.
