Pantone™ PMS 259 U

Pantone PMS 259 U is a color reference, not a finished paint product. Safety, VOC content, and handling requirements depend on the specific paint type and format you choose, such as spray paint, brush-applied coatings, or other systems.

Before use, review the Safety Data Sheet for the exact product you order and follow the manufacturer instructions for ventilation, personal protection, and application conditions. Do not assume safety characteristics based on the Pantone code alone.

Shipping time for paint matched to Pantone PMS 259 U depends on your location, the paint format selected, and the shipping method chosen at checkout. Transit times are not fixed and can vary by carrier and destination.

If you are working toward a brand launch, installation, or review deadline, allow extra time for production and shipping, or plan to order a sample first to avoid schedule risk.

Pantone PMS 259 U defines a visual color target, but the final appearance can change based on the substrate. Absorption, surface texture, and reflectivity all influence how the color is perceived once applied.

For brand-critical projects or multi-material builds, evaluate PMS 259 U on the actual materials and finishes used in the final application. This helps confirm appearance under real lighting and avoids surprises at installation.

The finish choice affects how PMS 259 U is perceived. Matte finishes reduce glare and can appear deeper or softer, while gloss finishes increase reflectivity and often make saturated colors appear more vivid.

Consider viewing distance, lighting conditions, and brand intent when choosing a finish. For high-visibility displays, testing both finishes on the intended substrate is recommended before placing a full order.

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 259 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 259 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.
