COLOR CODEEC7 - Twilight Blue Pearl MetallicDodge Touch-Up Paint

The Look

This color is a moody time capsule from the late eighties. Since your Dodge has likely been on the road for over three decades, you know this shade is more than just a standard navy. It was a premium choice for cars like the Shadow and the Daytona, offering a sophisticated look that stood out from the flat, solid colors of the era. It captures that specific moment when car paint transitioned from simple pigments to complex, light-catching finishes. It is a deep, dark blue that looks nearly black in the shade but reveals its true character the moment you pull it out of the garage.

Technical Details

This is a pearl metallic finish, which means it contains both aluminum flakes and mica particles. This combination creates a beautiful sense of depth, but it requires a careful hand during application. The biggest risk with a metallic like this is mottling, where the tiny flakes bunch together and create dark streaks or spots. If the paint goes on too heavy, the flakes won't have room to lay flat, and the repair will look uneven. You want the light to bounce off the surface uniformly, so thin layers are your best friend here.

Best Practices

Before you spray or dab Dodge Twilight Blue Pearl Metallic (check for code EC7), you need to shake it for 60 seconds. You can usually find your paint code on the driver's side door jamb or on the metal radiator support bar under the hood. Those heavy metallic particles sink to the bottom quickly, so constant mixing is the only way to get an accurate match. Test the color on the included card to see how the pearl reacts to your technique. Whether you are using a nozzle or a brush, keep the container moving to ensure the flakes distribute evenly. Allow for plenty of drying time between layers to prevent the paint from sagging or trapping air.
