COLOR CODEHA2/3D - Sterling MetallicEagle Touch-Up Paint

The Look

Your Eagle Premier was built during a unique era when AMC and Renault handed the reins to Chrysler. This color represents that history. It is a sophisticated, executive silver that provides your car with a clean and understated profile. Since your vehicle has been on the road for over thirty years, the original finish has weathered many storms. Do not expect an exact match to the factory-fresh glow without some effort, as silver is a practical choice that hides dirt but shows its age through fading.

Technical Details

This is a metallic finish. Tiny flakes inside the paint create the shimmer, but they also make the repair a challenge. If these flakes do not lay flat, the finish will show dark stripes or cloudy spots. This mottling happens when the paint is applied too heavy or if the spray distance is too close. Silver is known for showing every mistake, so you must remain patient while you build your layers.

Best Practices

Locate your paint information on the passenger side inner fender well or the firewall near the middle of the engine compartment. Before you spray or dab Eagle Sterling Metallic (check for code HA2/3D), you need to shake it for 60 seconds to mix those metallic particles. Test the color on the included card to see how the pigment reacts to your current finish. Work in a cool garage or the shade to keep the surface temperature down. Keep the container moving at a steady pace to prevent the paint from pooling. Allow plenty of drying time between layers so the finish sets before you apply a clear coat.
