Please note I do not watch a lot of that

I was not previously aware of the Pantone System. Thanks for your explanation.
Since it is considered such a high industry standard, wouldn't it be nice if the rattle can paint producers would
include somthing on the rattle can label such as "Matches Pantone 1205C or "Comparable to Pantone 1205C".
