  • Pantone to vinyl match

    Posted by Marcella Ross on 16 December 2009 at 14:45

    I need to match pantone 5395C to a vinyl. My pantone book is a bit faded but as far as I can see Oracal 751-588 looks like a close match. Can anyone else give me a second opinion on this please?

    many thanks. 😀

    Nasty colour to match Marcie

    Very dark Blue / Black with a hint of yellow giving it a slight green look.

    I don’t use oracal but the 751 swatch I have has a Blue / Black which looks the closest.

    My closest Mactac is 9839-19

    Hope this is of some help.

    Tim.

    Well I’ve looked at it outside in the daylight; christ it’s cold! I don’t think you’ll get anything closer.

    Marcella did you actually mean 751-588 ?

    It’s not in my swatch or on the Oracle one online.
