Your Paint Color Profile

W-1 (1972) - Dover White

The Look

This is the definitive clean look of the early seventies. Whether it's on a Charger, a Dart, or a Polara, this shade provides an honest, bright backdrop that makes every piece of chrome look brand new. It isn't a warm cream or a soft off-white; it is a sharp, confident neutral. Since your Dodge has spent over fifty years facing the elements, the original finish might have yellowed or faded. This fresh paint will restore that factory-floor crispness, though you should remember that white is an unforgiving critic-it shows every fingerprint and grease smudge the moment you touch it.

Technical Details

This is a solid finish, which is excellent news for your repair. Because there are no metallic flakes or pearls swimming in the mix, you do not have to worry about the color shifting or looking striped if your application isn't perfect. The pigments are heavy and provide great coverage, but the downside is that a solid white highlights every dent or wave in the metal. If your bodywork isn't smooth, this color will tell everyone about it. Before you spray or dab Dodge Dover White (check for code W-1 (1972)), you need to shake it for 60 seconds to ensure the white solids are mixed.

Best Practices

You can find your paint code stamped onto the metal fender tag located under the hood on the driver-side inner fender. Once you have the surface clean, test the color on the included card to see how it sits against your vintage paint. If you are working in your garage or the shade, keep the container moving to prevent the paint from pooling. Pay close attention to your drying time between layers; if you rush the process, you will end up with a soft finish that is prone to chipping. A few thin passes will always look better than one heavy coat.

ensuring the right match

Find your Dodge paint code

Older Dodge paint codes were placed on top of the radiator support, often obscured by engine grease and oil. Later models list them on the drivers door jamb. The typical format is BS/GBS, but only BS is the color code; it can also appear as QBS, PBS, TBS with the first letter as a confusing Year Code. The G in GBS is not part of the color code. BS corresponds to Deep Water Blue Pearl Clearcoat; lately codes are simply listed as BS.

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.
