What brand you use will make a difference. Avery light blue is close.

How about in Oracal? After the problems I had with Avery, I have not used any of their products. This is to go on softball helmets. Thanks for the help.

googled unc official blue PMS

http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=unc+official+blue+PMS&btnG=Google+Search

Third result returned says "Carolina Blue (PMS 542)...

http://www.cs.unc.edu/Resources/GenInfo/Logos/UNClogos.htm

I don't have my Pantone guide handy to match it up with an Oracal chart.

I am more confused than ever on what PMS Carolina Blue is for sure. Brian , thank you so much for the web sites but did you look at them? One said it was 278 and the other said it was 542. Those 2 blues are completely different. I looked at a Pantone chart and the 278 was about 15 parts white and 1 part Reflex blue. The 542 was completely different from that. Could someone please shed some light on this? Where are all those North Carolina fans out there?

I only sent a link to one offical UNC website. It says "Carolina Blue (PMS 542)".

On that page it also says

Department of Computer Science
Campus Box 3175, Sitterson Hall
College of Arts & Sciences
The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill
Chapel Hill, NC 27599-3175 USA
Phone: (919) 962-1700
Fax: (919) 962-1799


You can search for the term "PMS blue" in only the UNC website by doing this:

http://www.google.com/search?num=30&hl=en&safe=off&q=PMS+blue+site%3Aunc.edu

Since the results are mixed I'd recommend using the contact information above. I don't think you'd find a bigger North Carolina fan than right at the university.
