Pantone™ PMS 151 U

PMS 151 U is a Pantone PMS color target, not a durability specification. The longevity of a Pantone matched spray paint depends on surface preparation, the paint system selected, and the environment where it will be used.

For brand-facing displays, signage, and exhibit components, proper cleaning and priming are critical. If the painted surface will be handled frequently or exposed to light or weather, selecting an appropriate paint type and optional clear topcoat is important. Choose the paint system based on exposure needs rather than assuming durability from the Pantone code itself.

Yes. Expedited production may be available for PMS 151 U depending on the paint format and order details. Expedited options are typically presented during checkout.

If your project has a fixed deadline, it is recommended to contact MyPerfectColor before ordering to confirm production timing and shipping options. This helps ensure the schedule aligns with your marketing or installation timeline.

PMS 151 U is a bright, highly saturated Pantone color. Colors in this range often have lower hide than neutral or muted tones.

To achieve uniform color and visual impact, additional coats may be required, especially over darker substrates. Using a recommended primer and allowing proper flash time between coats helps achieve a consistent appearance that aligns with the Pantone color target.

No. Pantone PMS colors like PMS 151 U are intended for brand color reproduction, not touch-up or repair matching.

If you need a touch-up-grade result to match an existing painted or manufactured surface, the correct path is to send a physical part or sample for custom color matching. Ordering by Pantone code alone is best suited for branding, displays, prototypes, and marketing applications where the Pantone reference is the visual target.

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 151 U. 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 151 U 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.
