PMS 2452 C is a Pantone PMS color specified as a vivid, assertive red-magenta with a modern, high-energy presence. It conveys intensity, confidence, and visual emphasis, making it well suited for brand-driven applications where color clarity and saturation are critical.

The color appears dark overall, with an LRV of 19.18, and reads as warm with a subtle magenta influence. It is highly saturated, visually strong, and maintains a clean red-magenta undertone without noticeable brown or gray.

PMS 2452 C works well in brand-facing displays, signage, and exhibit components where bold color presence is required. Due to its high saturation and relatively low lightness, it may require additional coats to achieve uniform coverage, especially over light or uneven substrates, and benefits from consistent surface preparation and controlled lighting evaluation.

Similar colors:

Pantone 233 C: slightly lighter and more open, with increased pink-magenta emphasis.
Pantone 234 C: darker and cooler, with deeper magenta intensity.
Pantone 2425 C: more neutral and subdued, with reduced saturation and visual punch.

Can I use the Pantone PMS 2452 C for touch up?

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.
