PMS 3308 U is a Pantone PMS color specified within the Pantone Matching System as a deep, restrained green-teal. It conveys a subdued, serious, and grounded vibe with a strong emphasis on depth, coolness, and low visual reflectance.

The color appears very dark, with an LRV of 4.1. It reads as cool and moderately saturated, with a subtle blue-green undertone that becomes more noticeable in higher-sheen finishes.

PMS 3308 U works well in brand environments where a dark, controlled color is needed to support graphics, signage, or architectural elements without visual glare. Because of its low lightness, careful surface preparation and consistent application can help avoid visible inconsistencies, especially under directional lighting.

Similar colors:
PMS 3305 U: slightly lighter and more open, with less visual depth.
PMS 3302 U: darker and more neutral, with reduced green clarity.
PMS 5535 U: cooler and more muted, with a more gray-forward appearance.

Frequently Asked Questions About Pantone™ PMS 3308 U

Why is Pantone PMS 3308 U not recommended for touch-up or repair of an existing finish?

Pantone PMS 3308 U is a color communication reference, not a coating specification. It does not define the original paint formula, sheen, substrate, or application method of an existing finish.

When used for touch-up, even a visually accurate PMS 3308 U match can appear different next to the original surface due to gloss differences, aging, lighting, or surface texture. For this reason, Pantone PMS colors should be used when the Pantone reference itself is the target, not as a proxy for repairing or blending into an existing coating.

How do I order paint matched to Pantone PMS 3308 U on MyPerfectColor?

To order PMS 3308 U, start by selecting the paint format that fits your project, such as spray paint or another available paint type. Then choose the sheen level that aligns with how the color will be viewed in its final environment.

Next, select the quantity needed and review any available options before adding the item to your cart. Because Pantone PMS colors are visual standards, confirming format, sheen, and quantity before ordering helps avoid unexpected appearance differences.

How much area does one spray can of Pantone PMS 3308 U typically cover?

One spray can of PMS 3308 U typically covers about 12 square feet under normal application conditions. Actual coverage can vary based on spray technique, surface texture, color contrast, and the number of coats applied.

Highly saturated Pantone colors may require additional coats for even hide. For larger or high-visibility projects, ordering extra cans or testing coverage on your substrate first can help ensure consistent results.

How quickly will I receive my paint matched to Pantone PMS 3308 U?

Can I use the Pantone PMS 3308 U for touch up?

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.
