Your Paint Color Profile

YY-1 (1967) - Desert Dune Poly

The Look

Desert Dune is a sophisticated, executive beige that defined the upscale presence of the 1967 Chrysler lineup. On big-bodied cruisers like the Newport or the New Yorker, this color acts like a chameleon, appearing as a flat, sandy tan in the shade but waking up with a warm gold glow under direct sunlight. Since your Chrysler has been on the road for over half a century, the original finish has likely developed a character of its own through sun exposure. This shade is famous among owners for its ability to hide road dust and light grime, making it one of the most practical vintage colors to maintain while still looking expensive at a car show.

Technical Details

This is a Polychromatic finish, which is 1960s-speak for a metallic. Because it contains fine metallic flakes, you must be careful about mottling, which creates uneven dark stripes or blotches in the finish. These stripes happen when the metallic particles clump together rather than floating evenly in the paint film. To prevent this, you must keep the container moving with steady, rhythmic strokes. If you let the paint pool in one spot, the gold flakes will sink and create a muddy look that won't match the crisp sparkle of the surrounding panels.

Best Practices

Before you spray or dab Chrysler Desert Dune Poly (check for code YY-1 (1967) on the metal data plate located on your driver side inner fender under the hood), you need to shake the container for at least a full minute. Those metallic flakes are heavy and love to settle at the bottom. Test the color on the included card to see how the gold tones react to the light before you move to the car. Work in your garage or a patch of shade to keep the surface cool. Apply several thin layers rather than one thick one, allowing enough drying time between passes to let the metallic structure set properly.

Find your Chrysler paint code

Chrysler paint codes can be difficult to find. In the good old days, they were on top of the radiator support, often hidden under engine grease and oil. Later models put them on the drivers door jamb. Typical format: BS/GBS, but only BS is the color code; it can also appear as QBS, PBS, TBS, etc., with the first letter as a confusing "Year Code." BS corresponds to Deep Water Blue Pearl Clearcoat; the G in GBS is not part of the color code.

Will absolutely order from this company again.

After ordering touch-up paint from Lexus I was still waiting for it a month later. If they'd told me upfront it would take that long I wouldn't have ordered in the first place. Paint Scratch was recommended by a friend who restores cars. Easy ordering, fair price and fast shipping. The color match is great especially considering my car is a 2012. Will absolutely order from this company again. Reason I chose this business: Lexus collision repair and a local collision repair. Will use paint less dent removal and touch up chipped paint myself. Reason I chose this product: Spouse sideswiped passenger side of car while backing out of garage. Mostly plastic transfer from his wheel well trim but pressure creased and cracked the paint causing a bare strip 1/8 wide x 4" long below door handle. Scratches on door handle and a few small chips on both doors.

Simply the best custom mixed paint in spray cans

Used Paint Scratch metallic custom mixed spray cans paint on a hood panel with excellent coverage and texture over the surface. Metallic paint can be very unforgiving out of a spray can, sputtering pigmentation dots on the panel being sprayed and thus ruining the paint job. No such issues with Paint Scratch custom mixed metallic paint spray cans. Paint sprayed strong and evenly till the last drop of paint in the can. Shipping time was faster than expected. Reason I chose this business: Having tried other brands of custom mixed metallic paint with terrible results, sputtering pigmentation tint dots from the spray nozzle in spite of vigorously shaking of can prior to application and loss of propellant rendering the lower fifth of the can's paint useless, Paint Scratch custom mixed metallic paint sprays out beautifully and strong all the way to the last gram of paint in the can. Simply the best custom mixed paint in spray cans for automotive restoration. Thank you Paint Scratch.
