COLOR CODEWD/JWD - Ivory Pearl TricoatChrysler Touch-Up Paint

The Look

Your Chrysler 300 carries a level of class that most modern cars lack. This finish is a deep, warm cream that reflects the luxury market Chrysler targeted for over a decade. It is not a bright, sterile white; it has a rich, buttery depth that changes under different lighting. Since your car has been on the road for several years, the original paint has probably mellowed under the sun. This natural aging means your repair requires a bit of finesse to blend into the existing panels.

Technical Details

This is a pearl tricoat, meaning the shimmer comes from a separate layer of crushed mica. It is a demanding finish because the final appearance depends on the thickness of that middle pearl layer. If you apply too much, the patch will look yellow. If you apply too little, the repair looks flat. The mica particles must lay flat to catch the light, so any change in your hand speed will create visible shadows or stripes in the finish.

Best Practices

You will find your official color information on the sticker inside the driver's side door jamb. Before you spray or dab Chrysler Ivory Pearl Tricoat (check for code WD/JWD), you need to shake it for 60 seconds. Because this is a tricoat, you must test the color on the included card first. Apply your base color, then add thin layers of the pearl until the shimmer matches your car. Work in your garage or in the shade to keep the metal cool. Keep the container moving to prevent the paint from pooling, and allow plenty of drying time between coats so the pearl settles into place.
