Pantone™ PMS 5787 C

Pantone PMS 5787 C is defined by the Pantone Matching System as an official color standard. When PMS 5787 C paint is produced by a Pantone licensed and authorized source, you are assured that the color mix, target, and intended visual impact are matched against Pantone specifications. This gives you confidence that your brand or marketing application will visually align with Pantone standards, reducing the risk of off-brand color outcomes across projects and materials.

For Pantone PMS 5787 C, clean the surface to remove dust, grease, and any loose material. Make sure the substrate is dry and free of contamination. Where appropriate, lightly sand or scuff glossy areas for better adhesion and remove sanding residue. Before proceeding with full coverage, test the paint on a small, inconspicuous area to confirm adhesion, finish, and color appearance under actual lighting. Proper preparation helps PMS 5787 C look its best and perform consistently in brand and display applications.

Pantone PMS 5787 C should not be used as a touch-up reference for existing finishes. Pantone PMS colors define color targets but do not specify sheen, substrate, or the original finishing process, which are all critical for a true touch-up match. Variations in gloss, texture, or the underlying material can result in visible differences, even when color is matched. To maintain visual consistency, use PMS 5787 C as a standard for new brand-facing components and not as a touch-up solution.

Before ordering larger quantities or committing to fabrication, request a sample of PMS 5787 C in the specific paint format and finish you intend to use. Review the sample under the actual lighting conditions and on the substrate planned for your installation. This approach allows you or your clients to approve the color appearance in context and reduce risks of mismatch, ensuring PMS 5787 C meets brand visual standards before full production.

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 5787 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.
