Step 1: Select Paint Type / Application

PMS 349 U is a Pantone PMS green with a dark, grounded presence that reads as serious, stable, and visually dense, conveying a restrained and authoritative impression.

The color appears very dark with an LRV of 8.5, leans cool rather than yellow-warm, and maintains moderate-to-high saturation for its depth. A subtle blue-leaning green undertone helps it avoid an earthy or olive cast.

PMS 349 U performs well in brand-facing applications where a deep green is meant to anchor the overall look. Due to its low lightness, careful surface preparation and even application can help prevent uneven appearance, and finish choice can influence how much surface texture is revealed.

Similar colors:
Pantone 349 C: slightly brighter and cleaner, with a bit more green clarity.
Pantone 348 C: lighter and more open, with higher perceived saturation.
PMS 350 U: darker and more muted, with reduced chroma.

Frequently Asked Questions About Pantone™ PMS 349 U

Does PMS 349 U require extra coats for full coverage?

PMS 349 U is a deep, saturated Pantone color. Colors in this range can have lower hide compared to neutral or muted shades.

When applying a PMS 349 U match, expect that additional coats may be needed to achieve even coverage and consistent appearance, especially over light, dark, or mixed-color substrates. Using a uniform primer and testing on a sample surface helps confirm the number of coats required before full production.

What is the typical lead time for paint matched to Pantone PMS 349 U?

Paint matched to PMS 349 U is made to order rather than pulled from stock.

Production time depends on the product format selected, such as spray paint or other paint types, as well as current production volume. Allow additional time for order processing and shipping, and plan ahead if PMS 349 U is needed for a scheduled brand or display installation.

What safety and VOC considerations apply when using PMS 349 U paint?

Safety and VOC characteristics for PMS 349 U depend on the specific paint product and binder selected, not the Pantone color itself.

Always review the Safety Data Sheet for the exact product you are ordering and follow recommended ventilation, handling, and personal protection guidance. This is especially important for indoor brand environments, fabrication spaces, or short production timelines.

Can PMS 349 U be applied over metal or existing powder-coated parts?

PMS 349 U can be matched for use on metal or previously coated parts, but surface preparation is critical.

Existing powder coat or metal surfaces should be cleaned and properly scuffed to promote adhesion. Differences in substrate, texture, and gloss can affect how the PMS 349 U color appears, so evaluating a sample on the actual material is recommended before committing to a full run.

How quickly will I receive my paint matched to Pantone PMS 349 U?
All paint is custom-made to order. While most orders ship within 48 hours, the lead-time for paint made to match Pantone PMS 349 U depends on the type of paint needed. Interior and exterior house paints usually ship within 1 to 3 business days, while custom spray paint typically takes 3-5 business days to ship. The transit time depends on your location and the shipping method you choose. If your need is immediate, select Expedited Production during checkout.

We do our best to make sure you get your paint on time. Learn more about paint lead times at MyPerfectColor.
Can I use the Pantone PMS 349 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.
