Color summary
PMS 1645 U is a Pantone PMS color defined as a vivid, warm orange with a strong, attention-forward character. It is frequently chosen for brand and marketing applications that require clear color recognition and energetic visual impact.
Color characteristics
The color appears as a mid-light orange with an LRV of 34.06, giving it noticeable brightness without reading as pale. It leans warm and distinctly orange, with very high saturation and a clean undertone that avoids muted or brown notes.
Practical application
PMS 1645 U performs well on signage, displays, and fabricated elements where bold color is central to the design. Due to its high chroma, it may require a light primer and multiple coats for uniform coverage, and finish and lighting conditions can significantly affect how intense the color appears.

Pantone PMS 1645 U is a bright, saturated color, which means matching it in paint involves visual interpretation rather than following a fixed formula. Pantone PMS codes define a color target for communication, not a paint recipe.
MyPerfectColor produces paint to visually match the Pantone PMS 1645 U reference as closely as possible, but factors like paint chemistry, application method, and lighting can affect the final appearance. For projects with formal brand approval or high visibility, ordering a sample first is the safest way to confirm acceptance before committing to a full quantity.
When applying Pantone PMS 1645 U across a large surface, uniformity depends heavily on application control. Highly saturated colors often require additional coats to achieve even hide and consistent color.
Plan for consistent spray distance, overlap, and coat thickness across the entire area. Avoid stopping and restarting in visible sections, as this can create patchiness. Testing your process on a representative sample panel before full application helps reduce risk and material waste.
The 'U' in Pantone PMS 1645 U indicates the uncoated Pantone reference. Pantone colors can exist in different series or contexts, and those distinctions matter when a brand specifies a color standard.
Before ordering, confirm that PMS 1645 U is the exact reference called out in your brand guidelines or project documentation. Ordering the wrong Pantone variant can result in a color that is technically correct but not accepted for your application.
Safety Data Sheets are tied to the specific paint product and chemistry, not to the Pantone color itself. Pantone PMS 1645 U describes the color target, but the SDS depends on the paint type you select.
Once you choose a specific product format, such as spray paint or another paint type, the corresponding SDS can be found in the SDS library for that product. Always review the SDS for the exact item you plan to use.
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 1645 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 1645 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.
