PMS 9140 C is a Pantone PMS color defined for standardized brand communication and visual matching across materials. It presents as light, airy, clean, fresh, and subdued, with a gentle yellow-green character that reads softly rather than vividly.
The color appears very light, with an LRV of 85.27. It leans warm overall due to its yellow-forward green hue and shows low to moderate saturation, avoiding a bright or fluorescent appearance.
PMS 9140 C works well in brand environments that require a light, approachable color without strong contrast or visual dominance. Because of its pale value, careful surface preparation and consistent priming can help achieve an even appearance, and lighting should be considered since it can influence whether the color reads more yellow or more green.
This Pantone PMS color is defined by the Pantone Matching System standard. Evaluate the color using a physical Pantone reference and a real paint sample in the intended lighting and finish. Paint appearance varies by finish and lighting.

When working with any paint product matched to Pantone PMS 9140 C, safety requirements will depend on the specific format and chemistry you select. Always review the Safety Data Sheet (SDS) for your chosen product and follow all ventilation, personal protective equipment, and safe handling guidance provided. If low-VOC or specialized formulations are needed, confirm the availability and suitability before ordering. Responsible preparation and application help ensure successful and safe results for all Pantone PMS 9140 C projects.
Ordering a standard Pantone color match for PMS 9140 C is appropriate when your goal is consistency with Pantone brand standards, such as for marketing displays, exhibit components, or prototypes where the Pantone color is the reference. The standard match provides a visual target suited for signage or branded installations, especially when you need to meet deadlines and align with existing specifications. If color acceptance depends on formal approval under specific lighting or for multi-material use, consider sampling or additional verification steps.
Pantone PMS 9140 C paint is often used for prototypes and concept models when visual brand consistency is a priority. Select a paint format that matches your prototyping process, such as spray paint or brush-on, and consider evaluating the color under your typical lighting conditions. Since finish and substrate can affect final appearance, testing your prototype with the intended materials helps ensure you achieve the desired visual alignment before scaling up.
For large area applications of Pantone PMS 9140 C, plan your approach to ensure uniform coverage and consistent color appearance. Use even, overlapping coats and maintain a wet edge to avoid visible bands or patchiness. Highly saturated colors like PMS 9140 C may require additional coats to achieve full hide, so prepare for the possibility of extra material and application time. Lighting and surface texture can also affect how the color is perceived, so review your results at different viewing angles before completing your installation.
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.

It sticks well to most surfaces including metal, plastics, powder-coatings, cabinets and primed or previously painted wood.

While MyPerfectColor can provide PMS 9140 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.
