Your Paint Color Profile

BK6/DT6578 - Spice Metallic

The Look

This 1983 brown represents the final years of the earth-tone era for the classic Chrysler van. It captures the transition from the rugged seventies into the more refined eighties. Since your van has spent decades in the sun, the color might have a warmer or flatter appearance than it did on the showroom floor. It is a humble shade that hides dust from the job site, but it shines when the metallic flakes catch the light.

Technical Details

Because this is a metallic finish, you deal with tiny flakes that sink to the bottom of the container. If you fail to keep them suspended, you end up with dark blotches or stripes that ruin the factory look. This finish relies on a consistent application to ensure the sparkle remains even across the repair area. If the flakes cluster together, the repair looks like a bruise rather than a clean match.

Best Practices

Look for the data plate riveted to the radiator support under the hood or on the driver-side door jamb. Before you spray or dab Chrysler Spice Metallic (check for code BK6/DT6578), you need to shake the container for 60 seconds. Test the color on the included card to see how the flakes look. When applying, keep the container moving to prevent the paint from pooling and allow enough drying time between light layers to build the finish.

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.
