COLOR CODEB01/PCL - Dark Blue PearlEagle Touch-Up Paint

The Look

This blue captures the early 90s Eagle identity perfectly. Because it was only available in 1993, your car carries a rare piece of automotive history. It is a deep, moody shade that gives your Vision or Talon a sophisticated aesthetic. While the dark base is great for hiding light road dust, the finish really needs a clean surface and direct sunlight to reveal the depth of the pearl. Since your Eagle has been on the road for decades, the original paint has likely seen some sun, so a careful touch-up is the best way to bring back that factory character.

Technical Details

This is a pearl finish, which behaves differently than a standard metallic or solid color. Instead of simple metal sparkles, it uses mica pigments to create a glow that seems to change depth depending on your viewing angle. The challenge with a pearl is the weight of those particles; they like to settle at the bottom of the container. If you don't mix them thoroughly, you risk a finish that looks blotchy or "mottled," where the color appears darker in some spots and lighter in others. This happens when the mica isn't distributed evenly across the surface.

Best Practices

You will usually find your identification plate on the driver's side door jamb, but on some 1993 models, it might be located on the firewall or the radiator support under the hood. Before you spray or dab Eagle Dark Blue Pearl (check for code B01/PCL), you need to shake it for 60 seconds to ensure the mica is fully suspended. Test the color on the included card to see how the pearl reacts to the light in your garage or shade before you touch the car. When applying the paint, keep the container moving to prevent the pigment from pooling. Allow for plenty of drying time between thin layers to ensure the repair blends into the surrounding panels.
