Step 1: Select Paint Type / Application

PMS 2104 C is part of the Pantone PMS collection, designed for standardization in brand and identity specification. This color carries a strongly saturated, pronounced magenta tone with a noticeable violet influence, exhibiting a dark and impactful presence. It projects a technical, assertive, and contemporary vibe, making it practical for stand-out visual applications and environments where color accuracy and intensity are required.

PMS 2104 C appears dark in value, consistent with its low LRV of 6.28. The color is distinctly cool, leaning toward the violet/magenta side of the spectrum. This color features high saturation, resulting in bold visual presence. The undertone is cool and vibrant, with a noticeable violet-magenta base. The color may display higher sensitivity to finish: gloss can intensify its chromatic effect, while matte finishes may subdue its vibrancy.

PMS 2104 C performs well where deep, vivid color is needed for branding or spectacle and where visual consistency across materials is a top consideration. Dark, highly saturated colors such as this can appear significantly different depending on lighting conditions and paint finish; test application samples in situ to ensure the intended effect is maintained. The color’s depth and intensity can challenge coverage—several coats or a specialty undercoat may be required for even appearance. When comparing to similar colors, PMS 2104 C is notably cooler and more chromatic than most deep reds or burgundies, and lacks the softness seen in more muted violets.

Similar colors:
PMS 229 C – Slightly darker and less chromatic, offering a more subdued burgundy character.

PMS 3520 C – Lighter and visibly warmer, shifting toward red-violet tones.

PMS 2612 C – More violet and less magenta, resulting in a cooler and deeper purple effect.

Frequently Asked Questions About Pantone™ PMS 2104 C

How does specifying Pantone PMS 2104 C support consistent brand experiences?

Pantone PMS 2104 C is a standardized color reference designed so that organizations can achieve a recognizable and consistent visual identity across all branded materials. By specifying PMS 2104 C, you set a precise color target that different vendors and fabricators can follow for displays, signage, environments, and other marketing assets. This helps minimize color variations between materials, ensuring the intended brand presence is maintained wherever the color appears.

What should I know about coverage and undercoats when using Pantone PMS 2104 C paint for brand displays?

Pantone PMS 2104 C is a deep, highly saturated color that may require more coats than lighter or less vivid hues to achieve uniform coverage, especially over contrasting backgrounds. For best results, use an appropriate undercoat or primer that matches the intended finish and limits show-through from the substrate. Planning for additional coats helps achieve the expected depth and chromatic effect, reducing the risk of uneven appearance in brand-facing projects.

Can Pantone PMS 2104 C be reliably cross-referenced to other paint brands?

Pantone PMS 2104 C is a unique standard from the Pantone Matching System and does not have a direct, reliable equivalent in other paint company collections. Different brands use their own color palettes and formulations, so attempts to cross-reference vivid Pantone colors like PMS 2104 C often result in noticeable differences. For brand consistency, use PMS 2104 C as your specified reference to avoid unexpected color shifts.

Is Pantone PMS 2104 C paint suitable for repair or touch-up applications?

Pantone PMS 2104 C is intended for brand color reproduction and visual identity projects, not for repairing or touching up existing finishes. If you need touch-up grade matching for a painted item, the most reliable approach is to send a physical sample or part to match. Matching by Pantone code alone may not produce a visually seamless result for touch-up scenarios, especially on pre-finished or manufactured items.

How quickly will I receive my paint matched to Pantone PMS 2104 C?

Can I use the Pantone PMS 2104 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.
