COLOR CODE960/9960/P61 - AlabasterChrysler Touch-Up Paint

The Look

Alabaster is the signature clean white that defined the mid-2000s Chrysler Crossfire. It was designed to look clinical and high-end, reflecting the car's German engineering and European manufacturing roots. Since your car has likely been on the road for nearly twenty years, this white has probably fared better against the sun than many metallic paints of the same era, though it is notorious for highlighting road grime and iron deposits. It provides a sharp, bright contrast against the satin silver trim pieces that are common on these models.

Technical Details

This is a solid finish, which means it contains no metallic flakes or pearl pigments. The lack of flake is a double-edged sword for your repair. On one hand, you do not have to worry about the finish looking "tiger-striped" or the flakes standing up at the wrong angles, making the color much easier to match than a metallic. On the other hand, solid whites are unforgiving because they show every bit of surface texture or stray dust. If you do not apply it in a clean garage or protected shade, any floating debris will be visible in the final finish.

Best Practices

You can find your identification plate on the radiator support bar under the hood or on the driver's side door pillar. Before you spray or dab Chrysler Alabaster (check for code 960/9960/P61), you need to shake it for 60 seconds to ensure the heavy white pigments are fully mixed. Test the color on the included card to see how well the fresh paint matches the current state of your car. When you apply the paint, keep the container moving to avoid heavy edges, and allow for a steady drying time between each thin layer.
