Pantone™ PMS 5845 C

Pantone PMS 5845 C should not be used as a touch-up reference for existing finishes because Pantone codes do not specify gloss, substrate, or application process. Paint batches matched to PMS 5845 C may look different on various surfaces, under different lighting, or when applied over existing coatings. For reliable results, always use a touch-up method based on the original manufacturer's specifications or an actual sample from the installed finish.

To order paint matched to PMS 5845 C, use the MyPerfectColor product page for that color. Choose your preferred paint type (such as spray paint, paint pen, or house paint), select the desired sheen, specify the quantity, and confirm any other options shown. Make sure your selection matches your project's substrate and environment. If you have specific needs for branding, marketing, or display applications, select the option that best aligns with those requirements.

Surface texture plays a key role in how PMS 5845 C appears once applied. A rough or matte substrate will diffuse light, making the color look softer and sometimes lighter. Smooth or glossy finishes reflect more light and can make PMS 5845 C look deeper or slightly more saturated. Always sample the color on your actual material and with your intended finish to ensure the final appearance meets your project goals.

When selecting a PMS 5845 C paint for your project, consider whether it will be used indoors or outdoors. For exterior applications, choose a paint type formulated for outdoor durability and weather resistance. For interior projects, interior-rated paints are suitable and may offer a wider range of finishes. Always confirm the paint type and sheen will provide the performance and appearance you expect under your specific use conditions.

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 5845 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.
