Your Paint Color Profile

CR6 - Garnet Pearl Metallic

The Look

This shade of red defines the mid-1980s era of Chrysler luxury and utility. Whether it sits on an early minivan or a sleek LeBaron, it provides a deep wine-red tone that feels high-end compared to a standard red. Since your vehicle has been on the road for decades, the original finish has aged. Achieving a match depends on technique as much as the paint itself.

Technical Details

This is a pearl metallic finish, meaning it contains mica and metal flakes to catch the light. While the depth is high, these particles are heavy and settle in clusters if you apply thick layers. If you do not keep the container moving, you might end up with dark spots or stripes where the metallic flakes clump. The key is to build the color with light, even passes instead of trying to cover the spot in one go.

Best Practices

Find your paint code on the metal identification plate located on the driver's side door jamb or the radiator support under the hood. Before you spray or dab Chrysler Garnet Pearl Metallic (check for code CR6), you need to shake the container for 60 seconds to wake up the heavy flakes. Test the color on the included card to see how the pearl behaves. Use the drying time between layers to inspect your work in the shade; this ensures the flakes lay flat and the color remains even across the repair.

ensuring the right match

How to Find Your Chrysler's Color 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.
