Pantone™ PMS 7457 U

PMS 7457 U is a Pantone Matching System color, which means it is a licensed color standard rather than a generic color name or formula. Using a licensed reproduction matters because Pantone controls the reference target and tolerances. MyPerfectColor is authorized to reproduce Pantone PMS colors, so the paint is matched to the official PMS 7457 U standard instead of an approximation. This reduces risk when PMS 7457 U is used for brand-facing displays, signage, or marketing elements where visual accuracy is required.

PMS 7457 U can be matched into paint for use on plastics, but plastics vary widely in surface energy and adhesion behavior. Some plastics require a specific adhesion promoter or primer before applying the color-matched coating. Because PMS 7457 U is often used on display and fabricated components, testing the complete paint system on the actual plastic substrate is strongly recommended before production to confirm adhesion, appearance, and durability.

When approving PMS 7457 U, compare samples under consistent lighting and on the same substrate type whenever possible. Allow the coating to fully dry and cure before making a final judgment, as color and sheen can shift slightly during drying. Differences in finish, film thickness, and lighting can affect how PMS 7457 U is perceived, so approvals should be based on real-world viewing conditions that match the final application.

The Safety Data Sheet is tied to the specific paint product and chemistry, not the PMS 7457 U color itself. Once you select the paint type or format for PMS 7457 U, the corresponding SDS can be found in the SDS library for that product. Always review the SDS that matches the exact paint you are ordering to ensure it meets your handling and compliance requirements.

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 7457 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 7457 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.
