Pantone™ PMS 2725 U

PMS 2725 U is a bright, saturated Pantone color. Colors like this can have lower hide than neutral tones, which means the underlying surface can influence the final appearance.

Plan for additional coats to achieve uniform coverage, especially over contrasting substrates. For high-visibility brand applications, testing PMS 2725 U on the actual material you will use is recommended so you can confirm coverage and appearance before full production.

Yes. PMS 2725 U targets the same Pantone color regardless of finish, but sheen changes how the color is perceived. Higher gloss finishes can appear brighter and more saturated, while matte or low-sheen finishes can look flatter or slightly darker.

This is normal and does not mean the color is incorrect. If finish is critical for brand approval, compare samples of PMS 2725 U in the actual sheen you plan to use under your intended lighting.

Whether a primer is needed for PMS 2725 U depends on the paint type, the substrate, and exposure conditions. Porous, uneven, or high-contrast surfaces often benefit from a primer to improve adhesion and help achieve more even color.

Using an appropriate primer can also reduce the number of color coats needed for saturated Pantone colors like PMS 2725 U. If you are unsure, provide details about your surface and environment so proper primer guidance can be given.

PMS 2725 U is a color standard, not a paint specification. The right paint type depends on your substrate, indoor or outdoor exposure, desired finish, and application method.

To get help, be ready to share what material you are coating, how the piece will be used, and any finish or durability goals. With that information, the appropriate paint format for your PMS 2725 U match can be selected.

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.

While MyPerfectColor can provide PMS 2725 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.
