Pantone™ PMS 807 C

Pantone PMS 807 C is a highly saturated, fluorescent magenta. These properties mean it may provide less hide than more conventional colors, so achieving a fully uniform finish often requires multiple coats. For best results and accurate brand consistency, plan for at least two coats and consider applying a suitable primer underneath, especially if painting over contrasting or porous substrates. Testing a sample in your intended environment is recommended before committing to production.

Primer use for PMS 807 C depends on the substrate and paint type. Priming is recommended when painting over bare, porous, dark, or uneven surfaces, or when maximum color vibrancy and adhesion are required. On clean, previously coated, light-colored surfaces, a primer may not always be necessary but can help with color consistency and coverage, especially for a fluorescent hue like PMS 807 C. Review your substrate and project requirements to decide, and consult specific primer guidelines as needed.

Matching a bright, fluorescent color like Pantone PMS 807 C can be challenging because its appearance is highly sensitive to the substrate, finish, and lighting. Even with professionally matched paint, slight variations may occur compared to Pantone swatches, especially across different surfaces. MyPerfectColor specializes in achieving the best possible match for PMS 807 C, but always test a sample on your actual material and environment to confirm visual alignment before full production.

Proper preparation is important when applying PMS 807 C to metal or powder-coated surfaces. Clean and scuff the substrate to ensure good adhesion and smooth out any surface inconsistencies. Existing gloss can affect how PMS 807 C appears, especially due to its fluorescent nature. It is strongly advised to test a sample on your actual part to confirm both appearance and film integrity before proceeding with the entire project.

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 807 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 807 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.
