PMS 2766 U is a Pantone PMS color defined as a very dark navy with a subtle violet cast, commonly specified for brand-facing environments. It conveys seriousness and stability while remaining visually distinct from pure black.
The color has an LRV of 1.56, placing it among very low-lightness colors that absorb most light. It reads cool, shows moderate saturation, and carries a restrained violet undertone that adds depth without appearing bright.
PMS 2766 U performs well as an anchor color in displays, signage, and branded environments, particularly when paired with lighter contrasting elements. Because of its depth, careful surface preparation and consistent application help avoid visible variation, and lighting should be considered during evaluation.

Spray paint matched to Pantone PMS 2766 U is produced for visual brand accuracy, not as a one-size-fits-all durability solution. Durability depends on the paint type selected, surface preparation, and the environment where it will be used.
For display, signage, and brand-facing components, proper surface prep and an optional clear topcoat can significantly improve resistance to handling and wear. If the project involves outdoor exposure, frequent contact, or longer-term installation, selecting a paint type designed for that exposure is important before ordering.
Paint matched to Pantone PMS 2766 U is made to order. Standard production lead time typically depends on the paint format selected and current production volume.
Most Pantone matched paints ship after production is complete, so lead time is not the same as off-the-shelf paint. If you are working toward a fixed marketing or installation date, it is recommended to account for both production time and shipping when placing your order.
Pantone PMS 2766 U is a licensed color standard owned by Pantone. Accurate reproduction requires authorization to use Pantone reference data when formulating paint.
Using a licensed reproduction helps ensure the paint color is matched to the official Pantone standard rather than an approximation. This is especially important for brand standards, marketing displays, and applications where visual consistency across vendors and materials is required.
Choosing the right paint type for Pantone PMS 2766 U depends on the surface being painted, the expected exposure, and the desired finish. Different paint types offer different performance characteristics even when matched to the same Pantone color.
If you are unsure which option is appropriate, you can contact MyPerfectColor with details about your substrate, environment, and project goals. This helps ensure the selected paint format supports both accurate color appearance and real-world use conditions.
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 2766 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 2766 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.
