Pantone™ PMS 2313 C

The finish you choose can significantly change how PMS 2313 C looks once applied. Gloss and satin finishes tend to make this yellow-green color brighter and more saturated, amplifying its energy. Matte finishes can soften the color, making it appear less vibrant and slightly muted. For high-visibility displays or branded spaces where strong color recognition is important, gloss or satin typically delivers the most impactful results. Always test your finish and lighting combination on your intended material before committing to a large project, as PMS 2313 C is sensitive to both.

PMS 2313 C can shift visually depending on the material being painted. Differences in absorption, texture, and reflectivity all affect the final appearance. For example, a smooth white metal may make PMS 2313 C appear crisper and more saturated, while a porous or textured plastic could make it look somewhat darker or duller. For best brand consistency, test PMS 2313 C on the actual substrate you plan to use and view it under your target lighting conditions before finalizing specifications.

Good preparation is key to a consistent finish with PMS 2313 C. Start by cleaning and degreasing the surface to remove any oils or residues. Lightly scuff glossy or slick surfaces if appropriate for the substrate. Make sure the surface is dry, smooth, and free of dust. For saturated colors like PMS 2313 C, a white primer often helps both coverage and visual impact. Always perform a test spot before full application to check appearance and adhesion on your actual material.

PMS 2313 C paint matches are intended for brand color consistency in new builds, displays, and prototypes, not for spot repair. If you need a touch-up-grade match for an existing item, send a physical part to have a custom match made directly from the item itself. Matching by Pantone code alone is not recommended for precise repair or restoration.

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 2313 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.
