The Pantone Solid Color Set (#GP1608C) bundles two essential spot-color tools: the Formula Guide (coated & uncoated fan decks) and the Solid Chips Books (coated & uncoated). It combines a portable, personal color tool with a desktop reference — giving you all 2,390 Pantone Spot Colors in both fan-guide and removable-chip formats for every stage of the graphics and print workflow: inspiration, selection, palette building, team sharing, approvals, and quality control.
- Guide + chips in one set — Formula Guide fan decks for portable reference, Solid Chips Books for desktop palette building and sharing
- 2,390 spot colors — all with ink formulations, including 224 new colors
- Coated & uncoated — see how each color prints on both stocks
- Perforated, removable chips — three-sided color bleed; up to seven colors per page with six 1.2" × 0.8" chips each — tear out, arrange, attach, and ship exact color intent
- Organized storage — ring-bound pages plus two Paper Chip Savers for loose chips
- Standard stocks — 100 lb coated and 80 lb uncoated (118 gsm)
- Tight tolerance — aim < 2.0 ΔE00 to Pantone master standard reference data; lighting indicator page included
Tip: Individual chip-book replacement pages can be reordered when frequently used colors run low. Evaluate color only under suitable lighting (use the built-in indicator or a D50/D65 light booth). Pantone recommends replacing guides 12–18 months after opening.
