PMS 7422 C (Pantone PMS collection) is a pale, warm pink with a gentle and fresh appearance suited for brand-focused applications demanding clarity and approachability. Its vibe is clean, soft, approachable, light, and current.
PMS 7422 C appears light in value, with a high LRV of 72.07 indicating strong reflectance and brightness. The color shows a distinctly warm tendency, due to both its pink hue and its position near red on the color wheel. PMS 7422 C exhibits moderate chroma, resulting in noticeable but not overpowering saturation. This color has a clear, uncomplicated undertone emphasizing warmth without veering into orange or beige. The visibility of subtle undertones can shift depending on gloss level and ambient lighting, making finish selection operationally relevant.
PMS 7422 C is effective when a soft, accessible brand presence or accent is needed on displays, exhibits, or marketing environments. Its lightness allows flexibility in well-lit or neutral settings but may lose impact in high-glare or overly bright environments. Uniform substrate prep is important, as lighter saturated pinks can be susceptible to uneven coverage, especially on strongly colored or variable surfaces. Compared to deeper or more muted pinks, PMS 7422 C reads more contemporary and open without the formality or weight of dusty or darker hues.

PMS 1775 C—slightly darker and more chromatic, with a more noticeable red undertone.

Frequently Asked Questions About Pantone™ PMS 7422 C
Will paint made for Pantone PMS 7422 C match what I see in my Pantone book?
Pantone books provide the color standard for PMS 7422 C, but the appearance of paint can differ due to factors like sheen, substrate, and lighting. Paint on real materials may look lighter or darker than the book sample, especially with changes in gloss or surface type. For brand-critical applications, always sample PMS 7422 C paint on the actual substrate you plan to use and review it under installation lighting conditions before proceeding with a full order.
What should I consider when painting or recoating metal or powder-coated parts to match PMS 7422 C?
When applying PMS 7422 C to metal or previously powder-coated substrates, surface prep is essential. Scuff and clean thoroughly to remove oils and promote adhesion. The gloss and texture of the existing coating can affect how PMS 7422 C appears, so differences from color samples or Pantone books are likely. Always run a test sample on your intended substrate and inspect the result before committing to production quantities.
How does the surface texture affect the look of PMS 7422 C?
PMS 7422 C may appear lighter, darker, or differently saturated depending on surface texture. Smoother substrates reflect light evenly and can make the color look brighter, while textured or matte surfaces scatter light and may mute or darken the color. Always sample PMS 7422 C in the actual gloss and texture you plan to use to confirm visual results for your application.

Can I use the Pantone PMS 7422 C for touch up?
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.
