The Pantone matching system is a book of literally thousands of colours in flat and gloss , each number represents a colour
It uses as the basis CMYK , White and Clear to match any colour you like
A reputable paint matching company worth their salt should possess a copy or use a scanner to colour match
I have noticed when watching some of the home renovation shows either American or Australian the experts (I use that word loosely) are wandering around with the Pantone book trying to assess what colours would be suitable
Please note I do not watch a lot of that
I hope my explanation helps
