Color summary

PMS 413 U is a Pantone PMS color defined as a muted gray-green neutral with very low saturation. It presents a subdued, practical, and grounded visual tone that avoids strong color emphasis.

Color characteristics

The color has a mid-light appearance with an LRV of 58.49 and reads as soft rather than bright. It leans slightly warm due to a subtle green-gray undertone that can shift with lighting conditions.

Practical application

PMS 413 U performs well in brand-facing displays and components where a controlled, neutral presence is required. Because of its very low chroma, finish choice, surface preparation, and lighting can influence how clearly the green undertone appears, so evaluating a real paint sample is advised.

Similar colors:
PMS 414 U: slightly darker and cooler, with a more stone-like gray appearance.
PMS 415 U: darker and more neutral, with reduced green influence.
PMS 416 U: darker and warmer, with increased brown-gray depth.

Frequently Asked Questions About Pantone™ PMS 413 U

What does Pantone PMS 413 U represent for brand consistency?

Pantone PMS 413 U is a Pantone Matching System color used as a visual reference standard. It defines the target appearance of the color so different vendors, materials, and production methods can aim for the same result.

It is not a paint formula or finish specification. When you order PMS 413 U paint, the goal is visual alignment to the Pantone standard for brand-facing applications like displays, signage, and environments.

What paint formats are available for Pantone PMS 413 U?

Pantone PMS 413 U is available as custom spray paint and other paint formats for branding and display applications. Common options include spray paint, paint pens, and brush-in-cap bottles.

Choose the format based on how the color will be applied. Spray paint is typically used for panels, props, and displays, while pens or small bottles are better for detailed work or controlled application.

Will changing the finish affect how Pantone PMS 413 U looks?

Yes. Even when the color target is Pantone PMS 413 U, different finishes can change how the color is perceived. Gloss finishes often appear deeper or more saturated, while matte finishes can look lighter or softer.

This is a normal visual effect, not a mismatch. Always compare samples using the same finish and under similar lighting when evaluating color accuracy.

How should I choose between interior and exterior paint for Pantone PMS 413 U?

Select the paint type based on where the color will be used, not the Pantone code itself. Interior paints are intended for controlled indoor environments, while exterior paints are formulated for exposure to weather and sunlight.

If PMS 413 U will be used on outdoor signage or installations, choose an exterior-rated option. For indoor displays, exhibits, or prototypes, an interior paint is typically appropriate.

How quickly will I receive my paint matched to Pantone PMS 413 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 413 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 413 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.

How do I convert PMS 413 U to a different color from another paint company?

While MyPerfectColor can provide PMS 413 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.
