    Good Afternoon Folks!

    Can someone point me in the right direction for a close match to the colors attached?

    I can only find the darker purple.

    Might be better to give a pantone reference as all monitors will show this as different to your original :lol1: if yours and theres aren’t callibrated.

    Michael – I hope you got those pantones from the client or from a pantone refernce book, if you took the values from corel based on what you saw on screen you will leave yourself open to huge mistakes.

    There really arent many vinyl ranges that have a lot of matt colours so might be tricky to do without printing/matt laminating,

    I chose the color’s while designing the logo and i don’t have a reference book.

    The CMYK values are as followed
    Light Purple: 31.78.0.0
    Dark Purple: 44.100.4.20

    I don’t know if this will help, normally when picking i vinyl i just look at my metamark color swash.

    I don’t have the option of printing and laminating because i don’t have a printer or a laminator. i might have to try and talk the customer into using gloss.

    not sure about matt would def go gloss unless no exposure to UV anyhow oracal 751 summer plum and magenta are reasonably close – no cigar though 😀
