Your Paint Color Profile

T-2 (1971) - Tunisian Tan Poly

The Look

Tunisian Tan is the gold standard of 1971 earth tones. This isn't just a flat beige; it is a sophisticated "poly" finish that was designed to catch the light on the long, sweeping panels of a Newport or the sharp lines of a Road Runner. Since your Chrysler has been on the road for over fifty years, the original finish has likely mellowed into a warmer, flatter hue. When you apply your fresh touch-up, you might notice it has a bit more "pop" than the surrounding aged paint, but that is simply the metallic flake finally getting a chance to catch the sun again.

Technical Details

Because this is a metallic finish, you are dealing with thousands of tiny aluminum flakes suspended in the pigment. This creates a depth that solid colors lack, but it comes with a trade-off. If you apply the paint too heavily in a single pass, those flakes will bunch together or sink, creating dark patches and uneven "stripes" in the color. To get the best result, you want the metallic particles to lay flat and even. Thin, patient layers are the only way to ensure the tan looks uniform across the surface of the metal.

Best Practices

You will find your factory color code stamped onto the metal fender tag, which is usually screwed into the driver's side inner fender well under the hood. Before you spray or dab Chrysler Tunisian Tan Poly (check for code T-2 (1971)), you need to shake the container for at least sixty seconds to fully suspend those heavy metallic flakes. Test the color on the included card to see how the metallic settles before you move to the car. Whether you are using a nozzle or a brush, keep the container moving to avoid pooling. Work in the shade or a garage, and allow plenty of drying time between your light coats to prevent the metallic from shifting as it sets.

ensuring the right match

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.
