Pantone™ PMS 7401 U

In Pantone PMS 7401 U, the "U" indicates the uncoated Pantone reference. Pantone colors can appear different depending on the series or suffix used in brand standards, such as coated or uncoated references. When ordering paint, you should confirm that PMS 7401 U is the exact reference specified in your brand documentation, since a different suffix can lead to a noticeably different visual result.

Paint matched to Pantone PMS 7401 U is custom made to order. Because it is produced specifically for your request, it is not easily revised or resold. Before ordering larger quantities, it is a good practice to confirm the correct product type, sheen, and reference standard, and to order a sample if your project requires formal color approval.

When approving paint matched to Pantone PMS 7401 U, compare samples under consistent lighting and on the same or similar substrate whenever possible. Allow the paint to fully dry and cure before making a final judgment, as color can shift slightly during drying. Viewing samples under multiple lighting conditions can also help identify perceptual differences before final approval.

Paint matched to Pantone PMS 7401 U is made to order, so production time is not instant. Lead time can vary based on the paint format selected and current production volume. Planning ahead is recommended for marketing, display, or brand experience projects with fixed installation or launch dates.

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.

While MyPerfectColor can provide PMS 7401 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.
