Pantone™ PMS 7471 C

Pantone PMS 7471 C is sensitive to lighting conditions. This turquoise blue can look crisper and more vibrant in natural daylight, while warm artificial lighting may mute its appearance or shift the color slightly greener. Because the perceived color can vary significantly, it is important to evaluate samples of PMS 7471 C under the actual lighting where the finished project will be used. This helps ensure brand consistency and reduces the risk of unexpected color shifts in marketing, display, or branded environments.

When using Pantone PMS 7471 C on plastic or other low energy surfaces, adhesion can be a challenge. Plastics differ in composition and may require a specialized primer or surface preparation to ensure proper paint bonding. It is recommended to test PMS 7471 C paint on the actual plastic substrate before full production to confirm performance. For best results, consult with your MyPerfectColor representative about your material and intended application so the right primer and process can be recommended.

The finish or sheen can noticeably change how Pantone PMS 7471 C appears. A high-gloss finish can make the color look brighter and more saturated, while a matte finish may appear lighter and less intense. Because differences in gloss level affect the way light reflects off the surface, comparing a matte to a gloss sample of PMS 7471 C can make them look like slightly different colors, even if they are matched to the same standard. Always evaluate samples in the intended finish to verify that the visual outcome meets 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.

While MyPerfectColor can provide PMS 7471 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.
