Pantone™ PMS 7418 C

When specifying PMS 7418 C for a pop-up or retail experience, evaluate samples in your intended space and lighting before full installation. The visual impact of PMS 7418 C is strongly affected by surface texture, lighting, and finish selection. Plan for surfaces that require durability due to customer traffic or frequent cleaning. Sampling PMS 7418 C on actual materials helps confirm that brand appearance meets expectations under real-world conditions. If your installation is high-visibility or permanent, consider formal sampling and approval processes with your stakeholders.

Paint matched to PMS 7418 C is made to order. Lead time usually depends on the format you select, such as spray paint versus larger liquid quantities, as well as current production demand. Most orders ship within several business days, but lead time may be longer during busy periods or for large volume requests. For time-sensitive brand activations or events, we recommend ordering early and confirming lead time with customer service if deadlines are critical.

PMS 7418 C can look distinctly different depending on the chosen finish. Glossy finishes will make PMS 7418 C appear more saturated, deeper, and visually intense, while matte or flat finishes may subdue the color and make it look slightly lighter or less vibrant. In high-visibility environments, match your finish selection to the intended brand impact and always test samples, since finish and lighting together can shift the perceived color significantly.

Because PMS 7418 C is a medium-dark, moderately saturated color, uniform coverage usually requires multiple coats, especially over light or contrasting substrates. For best results, consider using an undercoat that is close in tone to PMS 7418 C or use a gray primer designed to aid coverage of strong colors. Planning for additional coats helps achieve consistent brand color without streaking or variation, which is important for branding and display environments.

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 7418 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 7418 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.
