Pantone™ PMS 7573 C

It is important to verify that PMS 7573 C is the exact Pantone color specified in your brand standards or project documentation before ordering paint. Pantone codes may include suffixes like 'C' (Coated) or 'U' (Uncoated), which refer to the intended reference and can affect the color target. Always consult your official brand guide or color documentation to avoid mistakes that could impact brand consistency.

For best results with PMS 7573 C paint, clean and degrease your surface thoroughly to remove contaminants that can affect adhesion. Lightly scuff glossy surfaces where appropriate to promote better bonding. Make sure the substrate is dry before painting. Perform a small test application on your specific surface to confirm adhesion and appearance, as highly saturated oranges like PMS 7573 C may require additional coats for full coverage, especially on contrasting backgrounds.

PMS 7573 C is often chosen for signs, displays, and exhibit components because it is a defined Pantone standard that helps ensure visual consistency across different fabricated materials. When fabricating branded elements, matching to PMS 7573 C supports brand guidelines and marketing requirements. It is best practice to sample the color on the actual substrate to verify the appearance under intended lighting before full production, as material and finish can influence the final look of the color.

One spray can of PMS 7573 C generally covers about 20 square feet per coat on a smooth, nonporous surface. Coverage will vary based on surface texture, color contrast with the background, and the application method. Because PMS 7573 C is a highly saturated orange, multiple coats may be needed for full opacity, so factor this in when estimating the amount needed for your project. When in doubt, ordering extra cans can help ensure project completion without color variation from different batches.

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 7573 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.
