Pantone™ PMS 445 U

Pantone PMS 445 U is a Pantone Matching System color used as a brand reference target. It is a communication standard that helps different vendors aim for the same visual color when producing displays, signage, and brand environments.

The Pantone code defines the intended appearance, not a specific paint formula or finish. When you order a PMS 445 U match, the goal is visual alignment to the Pantone reference so brand elements look consistent across applications and locations.

Yes. For brand approval workflows, ordering a small sample of PMS 445 U is strongly recommended before committing to larger quantities.

Review the sample on the actual substrate and under the installed lighting conditions. Finish and lighting can change how the color is perceived, so sampling helps confirm acceptance and avoid surprises during final installation.

Yes. PMS 445 U is commonly used as a brand-standard color target for fabricated elements such as signs, displays, and exhibits.

Because these applications often involve different materials and finishes, visual matching to the Pantone reference is the priority. Sampling on the real substrate is the best way to confirm the PMS 445 U match meets brand expectations before fabrication.

Shipping time for PMS 445 U paint depends on your location and the shipping method selected at checkout. Transit times can vary, especially when working toward fixed marketing or installation deadlines.

Plan your order schedule to allow time for production, shipping, and any sample review or brand approval steps. Ordering earlier helps reduce risk when timing is critical.

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 445 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.

While MyPerfectColor can provide PMS 445 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.
