Your Paint Color Profile

DT-7764 (1973) - Turquoise

The Look

This isn't just a color; it's a time capsule. This shade was the uniform for the 1973 Dodge truck lineup, from the rugged D-Series pickups to the hardworking B-Series vans. It represents a specific moment in the seventies when utility vehicles started trading their drab industrial tones for something with more personality. On a vintage Dodge, this blue-green hue creates a look that is bold and unapologetically retro. Because your truck has likely been on the road or in the sun for over fifty years, you'll notice this color has a soul of its own, often taking on a slightly weathered character that defines the classic Mopar aesthetic.

Technical Details

This is a solid finish, which is excellent news for your repair project. Unlike metallic paints that use tiny flakes to reflect light, this solid pigment relies on pure, consistent depth. This makes it much more forgiving to apply in your Garage or a patch of Shade. You won't have to worry about the "mottling" or uneven dark spots that often plague metallic jobs. However, because it is a high-pigment solid from the seventies, the biggest challenge is the age of the surrounding paint. Original 1973 finishes tend to chalk or fade over time, so while the new paint will be an exact match to the factory standard, it may appear more vibrant than the paint currently on your fenders.

Best Practices

Before you spray or dab Dodge Turquoise (check for code DT-7764 (1973)), you need to shake it for 60 seconds. You can usually find this code on the safety certification label inside the driver's side door jamb or stamped on the radiator support under the hood. To get a clean result, always test the color on the included card to ensure the shade is right before touching the metal. When applying, keep the container moving to maintain an even Flow. Whether you are using a Nozzle, Brush, or Pen, remember that three thin layers are always better than one thick, heavy coat. Allow plenty of Drying time between layers to ensure the pigments settle correctly and stay durable for years to come.

ensuring the right match

How to Find Your Dodge's Color 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.
