Your Paint Color Profile

16 (1956) - Mint Green

The Look

This color is the embodiment of the 1956 Forward Look era at Chrysler. It is a soft, creamy pastel that was widely used across all models, from the stately New Yorker to the powerful 300B. Because your Chrysler has likely been through many decades of sun and weather, the original paint may have softened into a more matte appearance. This shade acts like a time capsule for your car, reflecting the mid-century optimism that defined the 1950s American road. It is a light, clean color, but keep in mind that pastels like this show road grime and grease very quickly, so your repair will look best on a thoroughly cleaned surface.

Technical Details

This is a solid finish, which is excellent news for a DIY repair. Unlike the "Poly" or metallic colors offered in the same year, this paint contains no metal flakes or pearls. You do not have to worry about the orientation of the flakes or a tiger-stripe effect where the color looks darker in some spots than others. The main challenge with solid pastels is achieving full coverage. If you apply the paint too thin, the old primer or metal might show through, altering the final hue. If you apply it too heavy, you risk a sag. The goal is to build the color in thin, even layers until the repair is opaque and matches the surrounding bodywork.

Best Practices

To confirm your match, look for the data plate on the driver side door pillar or on the firewall under the hood. Before you spray or dab Chrysler Mint Green (check for code 16 (1956)), you need to shake the container for at least a full minute to ensure the pigments are fully mixed. Do not skip this step, as the heavy green pigments tend to settle at the bottom over time. Test the color on the included card to see how it looks when dry before you touch the car. When you are ready to apply, keep the container moving to avoid puddles and maintain a consistent spray distance or flow. Allow for plenty of drying time between each coat to ensure the finish hardens correctly in your garage or shade.

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.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I find my vehicle's paint code?

Your paint code is usually found in the driver's door jamb, trunk, or under the hood. See our Chrysler Paint Code Guide for detailed instructions.

Will this paint match my car?

Because your Chrysler is older or uncommon, the most accurate option is custom matching where you mail in a small painted part for a hand match. Our paint technicians usually do a great job matching Chrysler color code '16 (1956)' but a perfect match cannot be guaranteed.

Do I need primer and clearcoat?

While primer is recommended on bare metal or plastic, clearcoat is essential: it protects the basecoat and restores factory gloss.

How long does shipping take?

Orders are mixed fresh and ship within 3-5 business days. Delivery takes 2-14 days depending on location.

Which touch up product should I choose?

It depends on the size of the damage:

  • Paint Pen (1/2 oz) - Best for very small chips and fine scratches.
  • Brush Bottle (2 oz) - Great for medium chips or scratches up to the size of a quarter.
  • Spray Can - Ideal for larger areas and panels.
  • Professional Sizes (Pint, Quart, Gallon) - Designed for full panel and vehicle resprays using spray equipment.

Not sure? If it's just rock chips or small scratches, start with a Paint Pen.

Can I return my order?

Yes! If there's a color match issue, we'll replace the product or give you your money back. You also can return unopened, non-custom accessories for a full refund.

How long will the paint last in storage?

Paint pens and bottles last about a year if stored cool and dry. Spray cans can last several years if the nozzle is cleaned.
