PMS 2272 C, part of the Pantone Matching System (PMS) collection, is a distinctive and vivid green designed for applications demanding exact color communication. The color presents as bold, assertive, clean, and modern, with a distinctly technical visual presence. Its relatively deep lightness (LRV 23.17) and pronounced chroma make it well-suited to applications where attention and clarity are priorities, while its cool undertone reinforces a contemporary or professional mood.
PMS 2272 C appears as a darker mid-tone green, with moderate reflectance. The color demonstrates a strong cool tendency, owing to a hue angle in the green spectrum. PMS 2272 C shows high saturation, giving it vividness and intensity. The underlying undertone is cool, leaning slightly blue-green rather than warm or yellow-green. Surface sheen or gloss can intensify perceived chroma, while matte finishes will reduce visual impact.
PMS 2272 C is most effective where a strong, easily recognizable green is needed for visual identity, signage, or branded displays. When choosing this color, evaluate lighting conditions—especially artificial versus natural light—as they can influence the perceived hue and depth, sometimes amplifying the cool undertone. As a high-chroma green, application may require additional coats for full coverage, especially over contrasting substrates or in lower-hide finishes. When compared to other greens in the PMS range, PMS 2272 C will read cleaner and more intense, without yellow or olive notes.

Paint brands create their own unique color palettes, so there is no direct equivalent in other lines for Pantone PMS 2272 C. Especially for saturated colors like PMS 2272 C, the pigments and color formulation are specific to the Pantone Matching System standard. Cross-referencing between brands is rarely exact, so selecting PMS 2272 C directly ensures the closest representation for applications where accurate brand color is essential.
Whether you need a primer for Pantone PMS 2272 C depends on the substrate, exposure, and paint type. Primers are recommended on unpainted surfaces, very smooth or glossy materials, and when covering contrasting colors to help with coverage and adhesion. Since PMS 2272 C is a vivid, high-chroma green, it may need extra coats over a dark or starkly different base, especially in lower-hide finishes. Check the product guidance for your specific paint and surface for best results.
The Pantone book serves as a standardized reference for PMS 2272 C, but painted surfaces may appear different due to factors like sheen and substrate. For visually demanding or brand-critical projects, always test PMS 2272 C on a sample of your actual material to see how it compares under your lighting. Expect some variation, especially between flat and glossy finishes, or between paper and paint.
To order Pantone PMS 2272 C paint, first choose your required paint format, such as spray paint or another paint type, from the options on the page. Next, select the sheen and quantity that fits your project. Review your selections for accuracy, add to cart, and complete checkout. For brand and visual applications, confirm that the selected product format matches your substrate and application method.
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 2272 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.
