COLOR CODEH07/PAE - Mild Gray PearlEagle Touch-Up Paint

The Look

Your Eagle is a survivor from a pivotal era in automotive history, and that 1993-only shade is a rare piece of the Diamond-Star Motors legacy. Whether it is on a Talon or a Vision, this color captures the early nineties obsession with tech-forward, sophisticated neutrals. It is a quiet, understated gray that does not scream for attention but reveals a hidden depth once the sun hits it. Since your vehicle has been on the road for over three decades, the existing finish has likely softened, making a precise touch-up essential to maintaining that clean, factory-fresh appearance.

Technical Details

This is a true pearl finish, which behaves differently than a standard solid or a simple metallic. Before you spray or dab Eagle Mild Gray Pearl (check for code H07/PAE), you need to understand that it relies on translucent mica flakes to create its signature glow. This means the color can shift slightly depending on how many layers you apply. If you go too heavy, the gray can start to look muddy or darker than the surrounding panels. The goal is to build the color gradually to let those mica particles catch the light without burying them under a thick coat of pigment.

Best Practices

Locate your paint code on the driver's side door jamb or the firewall in the engine bay to ensure a match. Because the pearl particles are heavier than the paint itself, they tend to settle at the bottom of the container. Shake your tool for at least sixty seconds to ensure the mica is fully suspended. Always test the color on the included card to see how the light reacts before moving to the car. Whether you are using a nozzle or a brush, keep the container moving to prevent the mica from clustering in one spot. Allow for ample drying time between light coats in your garage or a shaded area to prevent sagging and ensure a smooth transition.
