PMS 8700 C is a Pantone PMS metallic color specified as a visual reference for brand and display work. It presents a deep, cool-leaning green character with subdued metallic sheen, reading as controlled, technical, and understated rather than decorative.
The color appears dark overall, with an LRV of 16.79. It shows a cool green tendency with a subtle yellow-gold influence and moderate saturation softened by its metallic composition. A muted green undertone with metallic warmth shapes its visual character.
PMS 8700 C works well in controlled lighting where metallic depth and contrast can be appreciated without glare. Because metallic pigments reflect light unevenly, consistent surface preparation and uniform application help reduce mottling or patchiness, especially on large panels. Finish choice and lighting angle can noticeably change how dark or reflective the color appears, so sampling on the intended substrate is recommended.
Similar colors:
Pantone 871 C: brighter and warmer, with more gold reflectivity.
Pantone 872 C: darker and heavier, with reduced green influence.
Pantone 873 C: lighter and more bronze-toned, with less green character.

Yes, the finish you select for PMS 8700 C can change how the color is perceived. Higher gloss finishes reflect more light and often make the color appear brighter and more saturated, while matte finishes can make it look more muted. Even when the color formula matches the Pantone standard, comparing a high-gloss PMS 8700 C sample to a matte version may make them seem like different colors. For best brand consistency, verify your required finish before ordering paint.
The Safety Data Sheet (SDS) is specific to the paint product and type, not the PMS 8700 C color itself. Once you choose a product type for your PMS 8700 C paint, you can access the relevant SDS in the SDS library for that product. Always refer to the SDS for your chosen paint format to review safety and handling information.
Pantone PMS 8700 C is a licensed standard that ensures consistent color communication across suppliers and materials.

Paint matched to PMS 8700 C is made to order for each request. Standard production lead times depend on the paint format and current order volume but usually range from a few days up to a week before shipping. For urgent brand or marketing deadlines, plan ahead and choose your product type early in the process.
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 8700 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 8700 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.
