COLOR CODEW20/PWE - WhiteDodge Touch-Up Paint

The Look

The early nineties brought us the Dodge Stealth, a car defined by its low, wide stance and futuristic proportions. This specific white was the foundation of that aesthetic. It is a crisp, clean shade that provides a high-contrast background for the black trim and pop-up headlights of that era. Because this is a solid color without any distracting sparkle, it emphasizes the sharp lines of your car without the busy look of modern pearls.

Technical Details

Unlike the more complex pearl options from this period, this is a solid finish. While it might seem basic, a solid white is unforgiving when it comes to surface preparation. Any road oils or wax left behind will ruin the bond. Since your car has likely seen over thirty years of sunlight, the original paint has probably shifted in tone. Solid whites are easier to blend than metallics, but they do not have flakes to hide imperfections, so you will want to focus on a clean, even application to prevent the repair from looking like a flat patch.

Best Practices

To find your code, look for a metal tag on the firewall in the engine bay or a sticker inside the driver's side door jamb. Before you spray or dab Dodge White (check for code W20/PWE), you need to shake the container for a full sixty seconds to get the pigments moving. It is best to work in a cool garage or the shade to keep the surface from getting too hot. Test the color on the included card first to see how it matches your car's current state. When applying, keep the container moving to ensure the flow stays even, and give each layer plenty of drying time before you add the next.
