PMS 219 U is a Pantone PMS color identified within the Pantone Matching System as a highly saturated red-magenta hue. It conveys an energetic, bold, expressive, high-contrast, attention-forward character used where brand visibility is a priority.
The color reads as dark-to-mid value with an LRV of 19.28 and leans warm with a pronounced pink-magenta undertone. Its very high saturation creates strong contrast, and finish and lighting conditions can noticeably influence perceived brightness.
PMS 219 U works well in controlled environments where lighting and surrounding materials are considered early in the design process. Its saturation and lower LRV often benefit from a light primer and multiple coats to achieve uniform coverage, especially over darker or uneven substrates.
The color is commonly specified for brand-facing signage, displays, and exhibit components, as well as marketing installations where immediate visual recognition is required.
The following examples reflect commonly cited branding associations and are based on publicly referenced design usage; they are illustrative, not exhaustive or exclusive. The color family is widely cited in fashion, beauty, and pop-culture branding contexts that rely on expressive pink-magenta tones.

In Pantone PMS 219 U, the 'U' indicates the Uncoated Pantone reference. Pantone codes can change appearance depending on whether they are specified as Coated (C) or Uncoated (U). When ordering paint matched to PMS 219 U, you should confirm that your brand standards or source materials explicitly call for the Uncoated reference. If the suffix is unclear or inconsistent across documents, clarify this before ordering to avoid a mismatch against approved Pantone targets.
A standard match to Pantone PMS 219 U is appropriate when the Pantone reference itself is the approved color target. This commonly includes brand-facing signage, displays, exhibits, prototypes, and marketing installations where visual alignment to the Pantone system is required. In these cases, the goal is consistency with the Pantone standard rather than matching an existing painted surface or material.
For pop-ups and retail environments using Pantone PMS 219 U, it is best to evaluate the color under the actual lighting conditions where it will be installed. Lighting can significantly affect how saturated Pantone colors are perceived. Sampling on the intended substrate and reviewing coverage and uniformity before full production helps reduce approval risk, especially for large or highly visible brand elements.
Sheen can change how bright and saturated Pantone PMS 219 U appears. Higher sheen finishes tend to look more vivid and reflective, while lower sheen finishes can soften the color slightly. When choosing a sheen, consider viewing distance, lighting, and the surface being painted. If exact appearance is critical, testing PMS 219 U in the selected sheen before final production is recommended.
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 219 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 219 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.
