  Hi,

  Has anyone got both of the above? Im trying to find out the pantone number for Metamark 7 Series Mid Blue, i unfortunately dont have a pantone swatch!
  Have contacted metamark but they are unable to help.

  thanks.

  ah ha!!! 😀

  marcella, would be great if you could tell me, which is the closest pantone to the 7 series Mid blue?

  is reflex blue near it?
  looking for a very close match to have my stationery printed as the van is already done in mid blue!

  thanks in advance

  I’ve got an old Metamark swatch book and it’s got the M3 and M5 references in it. But I assume that M5-154 Mid Blue hasn’t changed since it changed name to 7 series! If so I reckon the closest match would be Pantone 294C. It’s not perfect but it’s pretty close. Reflex blue is a mile away, your mid blue is a different shade.
  Then again I’m colour blind….. only kidding! 😉
  Try that one, it’s not a bad match.
