Pantone™ PMS 8300 C

PMS 8300 C is a metallic teal with high sensitivity to both texture and finish. If applied to a rough or textured surface, reflectivity and shadowing can make the color look darker, less uniform, or even flatter in some areas. On a smooth, glossy surface, the metallic sheen will be more evident, and the color may appear brighter or more vivid. Always evaluate PMS 8300 C samples on your intended substrate and finish to confirm the color effect meets your brand needs.

To order PMS 8300 C matched paint, start by selecting the product format you need, such as spray paint, paint pen, or house paint. Next, choose the required sheen or finish, and then specify the quantity. Make sure the options reflect your intended brand experience and application requirements. If your project demands a specific substrate or has detailed approval processes, consider ordering a sample first to confirm the result before full production.

PMS 8300 C is a bold, metallic teal designed for strong visual impact, but highly saturated and metallic Pantone colors can be challenging to match exactly, especially across different substrates or finishes. Variations in lighting, surface prep, and sheen may all influence the perceived color. MyPerfectColor uses specialized processes to achieve the closest practical match, but it is best practice to review painted samples under actual lighting and substrate conditions before moving to production for brand applications.

When using PMS 8300 C on plastics or other low-energy surfaces, proper adhesion requires careful surface preparation. Many plastics need a specialized primer or adhesion promoter to ensure the color bonds correctly and does not peel. Always test PMS 8300 C paint on your actual material before committing to a full project to confirm both appearance and durability under your brand requirements.

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 8300 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 8300 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.
