Pantone™ PMS 2273 C

The durability of PMS 2273 C spray paint depends on proper preparation, the chosen substrate, and environmental exposure. For best results, ensure surfaces are clean and primed as recommended for the material. Adding a compatible clear topcoat can increase protection against abrasion and weathering. For exterior displays or areas with heavy handling, consider higher-performance coatings for added resilience. Always choose paint type and finish based on the demands of your installation environment to achieve lasting, visually accurate brand results.

PMS 2273 C is available in paint types designed for either interior or exterior use. For indoor displays or brand environments, standard interior paint or spray formats are typically sufficient. For exterior signage or outdoor brand features, select a paint type specifically formulated for exterior exposure to maximize color longevity and resistance to weathering. Confirm your project requirements and select the right product format for the intended setting to ensure optimal performance.

PMS 2273 C is a standardized Pantone color often required for fabricated components where brand color accuracy and consistency are critical. Using this Pantone code ensures that signs, displays, and exhibit elements align visually across different materials and production sources. It is important to sample the paint on the actual substrate and assess the color under real-world lighting before full production, as color perception and coverage can vary depending on substrate and lighting conditions.

Plastics and low-energy surfaces present adhesion challenges for PMS 2273 C paint. Surface preparation and the correct selection of primer or adhesion promoter are often necessary. Since plastics can vary widely in composition, always test the paint system on the actual material before launching into production or final installations. Proper testing ensures both color appearance and performance standards are met for your branded project.

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 2273 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 2273 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.
