PMS 2279 C is a standardized color within the Pantone PMS system, used widely in the marketing, industrial design, and display fabrication sectors. The color comes across as grounded, bold, and vivid with a technical and assertive vibe. Its measured darkness and notable chroma offer a strong visual presence suitable for specification-driven applications, particularly when reliable, repeatable color matching across materials is necessary.
PMS 2279 C is subjectively dark, with a measured LRV of 17.46. The color exhibits a cool green tendency, informed by its hue angle over 120°. PMS 2279 C has pronounced saturation, presenting a vivid chromatic intensity. The color shows an undertone leaning towards blue, reinforcing its cool profile. Apparent brightness and depth can shift noticeably depending on selected finish and the lighting environment.
PMS 2279 C performs well in signage, branded displays, and models where a deep, vivid green is required for consistent brand recognition. When specifying this color, verify large samples under the final lighting and finish, as both variables influence perceived depth and vibrancy. Coverage on highly contrasting or absorptive surfaces may require additional coats due to its dark, saturated character. When compared to similar greens, PMS 2279 C is bolder and cooler, maintaining chromatic clarity without skewing toward earthy or yellowish tones.

Pantone books provide a reference standard for PMS 2279 C, but actual paint appearance can differ from the book sample. Paint matched to PMS 2279 C will vary based on finish, sheen, substrate, and lighting. While the color target is the Pantone book, a visual difference is typical, especially between a printed guide and painted surface. For critical applications, verify color appearance on your actual materials using samples before full production.
To order paint matched to PMS 2279 C, choose your preferred paint format, select the sheen and quantity you need, and add any required options. Confirm all selections before checkout to ensure the product meets your project needs. Review application and coverage considerations, especially for highly saturated colors like PMS 2279 C. Samples are available if you need to validate appearance before placing a full order.
PMS 2279 C can look noticeably different depending on the chosen finish. Gloss and satin finishes tend to make the color appear brighter, richer, and more intense. Matte finishes can lower perceived brightness and reduce color saturation, which may make PMS 2279 C seem deeper or slightly duller. Always assess large samples with your selected finish in the intended lighting to ensure the final result meets your expectations and brand requirements.
Order a sample of PMS 2279 C before full production if your project involves high-visibility brand displays, a large installation, or if exact color appearance is critical. Sampling is especially important when different substrates or lighting conditions are involved, as these factors can affect how PMS 2279 C looks. Confirming appearance with a sample reduces risk and supports brand consistency in demanding environments.
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 2279 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 2279 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.
