Pantone™ PMS 2344 C

Ordering Pantone PMS 2344 C as paint means you are requesting a color match to the standardized Pantone PMS 2344 C visual reference. This specifies only the color target and is not a formula or manufacturing process. Paints matched to PMS 2344 C aim to reproduce the appearance of the Pantone swatch, but actual results may vary depending on substrate, finish, and lighting. Always confirm if your application demands precise brand alignment or formal sign-off on color appearance.

Applying Pantone PMS 2344 C paint to plastics or low-energy surfaces usually requires additional preparation. Many plastics do not allow strong paint adhesion unless you first use an appropriate primer made for that material. Different plastics behave differently, so it is essential to test the paint and primer system on your actual substrate before full production. This helps ensure that both color and durability meet your project's requirements.

When using Pantone PMS 2344 C for prototypes or concept models, select the paint format that matches your material and evaluation process, such as spray paint or brush-in-cap bottles. Apply the color to representative materials or sample boards under the lighting conditions where the final product will be viewed. This allows you to confirm if the color appearance supports your intended brand image before committing to production.

For Pantone PMS 2344 C, the choice between matte and gloss finish impacts both appearance and perception of color. Gloss finishes increase visual punch and saturation, while matte reduces glare and produces a softer look. Consider where and how your display or component will be viewed. For high-visibility branding or under bright lighting, sampling both finishes will help determine which supports your visual goals and maintains accurate brand consistency in real-world conditions.

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 2344 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.
