PMS 2111 U is a Pantone PMS color specified for consistent brand communication, presenting a dark, cool-leaning violet with a restrained but noticeable chroma. The overall impression is saturated, serious, modern, and visually compact rather than bright or playful.
The color appears dark, with an LRV of 14.83. It reads as cool with a clear violet-purple hue direction and moderate saturation, supported by a subtle blue-violet undertone.
PMS 2111 U works well where a strong brand color is needed without high brightness, such as exhibit elements, signage details, or graphic surfaces viewed at close range. Dark, saturated violets can emphasize surface variation, so smooth preparation and consistent application help maintain uniform appearance, especially in satin or gloss finishes.
Under mixed or low lighting, this color may appear darker and more subdued than expected, making sample evaluation important.
Similar colors:
Pantone 2665 U: lighter and slightly clearer, with a more open violet appearance.
Pantone 267 U: darker and more saturated, with increased visual weight.
Pantone 2685 U: deeper and more muted, with a stronger blue-violet bias.

MyPerfectColor matches the Pantone PMS 2111 U color based on Pantone color publications.

The Pantone PMS 2111 U color may vary from the PANTONE Color Standards based on lighting conditions, angle of view and/or due to differences in pigments, manufacturing process, substrate and/or limitations in the color capability of the paint.

Always order using the full Pantone code "PMS 2111 U" rather than a shortened name or description. The numeric code and the "U" suffix define the exact Pantone target. Omitting the suffix or substituting a similar name can result in a different color standard being used.
Pantone PMS codes are color communication references, not paint formulas. Using the exact code ensures the match is based on the intended Pantone standard and reduces the risk of ordering the wrong color target.
When applying a PMS 2111 U color match to metal or previously powder-coated surfaces, proper surface preparation is critical. Existing coatings should be clean, dry, and properly scuffed to promote adhesion. Any variation in the underlying surface can influence how the color appears.
Gloss level and texture of the base surface can shift perceived brightness and saturation. Because Pantone matches are visual targets, it is recommended to test the color on a prepared sample of the actual metal or coated part before committing to full production.
Pantone PMS 2111 U can appear different across materials because each substrate absorbs and reflects light differently. Surface texture, porosity, and reflectivity all influence how the color is perceived once applied.
Pantone PMS colors define a visual reference, not a guaranteed identical result on every material. For projects using multiple substrates, evaluating the color on each actual material helps confirm visual consistency before final production.
The Safety Data Sheet is tied to the specific paint product and chemistry, not to the Pantone PMS 2111 U color itself. Once you select the paint type and format, the corresponding SDS can be found in the SDS library for that product.
If you need documentation for compliance or internal review, confirm the product selection first, then reference the SDS associated with that coating system.
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 2111 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 2111 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.
