Pantone™ PMS 640 C

The appearance of PMS 640 C can shift noticeably under different lighting conditions. Blues like PMS 640 C may look more saturated or muted depending on whether you are viewing them in daylight, fluorescent, or LED lighting. To ensure your brand or display uses look correct, evaluate actual painted samples of PMS 640 C under the lighting conditions where the item will be seen. This step helps prevent surprises after installation due to metamerism or color shifts from the chosen light source.

For consistent results with PMS 640 C on large surfaces, it is important to use the same paint batch for the entire project and follow consistent application methods. Because PMS 640 C is a moderately deep, saturated blue, plan for enough coats to achieve full hide, especially over primed or contrasting substrates. Apply each coat evenly and follow recommended drying times. Variations in finish or application technique can result in uneven coverage or visible patchiness, so test your approach on a small area first if possible.

Pantone PMS 640 C is a licensed standard, and using an unauthorized source can result in color inaccuracy or inconsistency with Pantone specifications. MyPerfectColor is authorized to reproduce Pantone PMS colors using standardized references, helping you achieve reliable brand color alignment across all display and marketing projects. This is essential when accurate visual representation of PMS 640 C is required for your brand.

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 640 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.
