Pantone™ PMS 2019 U

Pantone PMS 2019 U spray paint is formulated to visually match the Pantone color standard, not to meet a specific durability rating. Durability depends on surface preparation, the paint system selected, and the exposure environment.

For display, signage, and exhibit components, proper cleaning and scuffing of the substrate are essential. If the piece will be handled frequently or exposed to light or abrasion, a compatible clear coat may be needed. If long-term outdoor or industrial exposure is required, you should evaluate whether the selected paint type meets those conditions before ordering.

Sampling Pantone PMS 2019 U is strongly recommended for high-visibility brand projects, large installations, or any work that requires formal brand approval. Appearance can shift based on substrate, finish, and lighting, even when the Pantone reference is followed.

A sample allows you to evaluate color accuracy on the actual material and under real viewing conditions. This step helps reduce approval risk before committing to a full production order.

Yes. Pantone PMS 2019 U is commonly used as a brand-standard color target for signs, displays, and exhibit components where visual consistency is required. The Pantone code communicates the intended color across vendors and materials.

Because fabricated elements often use different substrates and finishes, evaluating a sample on the actual materials is recommended. This helps confirm that the color appearance aligns with brand expectations once installed and lit.

When applying a Pantone PMS 2019 U match to metal or existing powder-coated parts, surface condition and finish have a significant impact on the final appearance. Surfaces should be clean and properly scuffed to promote adhesion.

Existing coatings, gloss level, and texture can change how the color is perceived. For brand-critical applications, testing a sample on the actual metal or coated surface is the best way to confirm the visual result before production.

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 2019 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 2019 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.
