Pantone™ PMS 571 U

Pantone PMS 571 U is a Pantone Matching System reference, not a paint formula. Matching it requires translating a printed color target into liquid paint, which introduces variables like pigment behavior, finish, and lighting.

MyPerfectColor specializes in producing accurate visual matches to Pantone PMS colors, but an exact one-to-one match across all materials is not guaranteed. You should expect a close visual match under standard viewing conditions, with small differences possible depending on sheen, substrate, and lighting. For brand-critical or high-visibility projects, ordering a sample first is the best way to confirm acceptance.

Paint matched to Pantone PMS 571 U is made to order. Production lead time depends on the paint format selected, order size, and current production volume.

Most Pantone matched paint orders begin processing within a few business days, with additional time for shipping. If you are working against a fixed marketing or installation deadline, it is recommended to order as early as possible or contact MyPerfectColor before ordering to confirm current lead time expectations.

You should always order using the full Pantone code, including the suffix. In this case, the correct reference is Pantone PMS 571 U.

Pantone names alone are not sufficient, and missing or incorrect suffixes like U versus C refer to different printed standards. Ordering with the exact code helps ensure the paint is matched to the intended Pantone target and reduces the risk of receiving a color that does not meet brand expectations.

Yes, paint matched to Pantone PMS 571 U can be applied to plastics, but results depend heavily on the specific material. Many plastics are low-surface-energy and may not allow proper adhesion without the correct primer or surface preparation.

Because plastics vary widely, MyPerfectColor recommends testing the paint system on the actual plastic substrate before full production. This helps confirm adhesion, appearance, and overall acceptance for your specific application.

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 571 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 571 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.
