Your Paint Color Profile

176 - Bright Red

The Look

Your Fiat 500 was built to be the center of attention, and this shade is the reason why. It carries that classic Italian spirit that makes even a trip to the grocery store feel like a lap around the Amalfi Coast. Because this specific version of the red was only active for the 2016 model year, it sits in a sweet spot between the older, darker maroons and the newer, softer corals. It is a high-energy, high-visibility color that perfectly matches the personality of a nimble city car. Since your car has likely been on the road for several years, you might notice the original paint has a deep, glassy glow that makes the car look like a polished piece of candy.

Technical Details

This is a solid finish, which means you do not have to worry about metallic flakes or pearl particles looking uneven if your technique isn't perfect. The beauty of a solid color is its depth, but the challenge is that red pigments are naturally prone to fading if they spend too much time in the sun. This paint provides excellent coverage, but because there is no metallic texture to hide behind, any heavy globs or drips will be obvious. You want to focus on building a smooth, level surface that mimics the factory finish. Before you spray or dab Fiat Bright Red (check for code 176), you need to shake it for 60 seconds to ensure those heavy red pigments are fully suspended.

Best Practices

You will find your color ID on a silver sticker located either on the underside of the hood near the latch or on the edge of the rear hatch lid. Before you start the actual repair, test the color on the included card to see how it matches your car's current level of weathering. Work in a cool garage or in the shade, as direct sunlight will make the paint dry too fast and leave a textured finish. Apply the paint in several very thin layers rather than one thick coat. Keep the container moving at a steady pace to prevent the paint from pooling in one spot. Give each layer plenty of drying time so the solvents can evaporate, leaving you with a hard, durable surface that is ready for a clear coat.

ensuring the right match

How to Find Your Fiat's Color Code

Fiat paint color code locations vary by year and model. Possible spots include the driver's side door jamb; under the hood; sometimes on the front of the vehicle near the engine. Also on the underside of the hood, often near the lock mechanism, or on the side of the hood, which becomes visible when the boot is opened. Another location is inside the trunk or on the side of the lid, particularly on models like the Fiat 500.

Will absolutely order from this company again.

After ordering touch-up paint from Lexus I was still waiting for it a month later. If they'd told me upfront it would take that long I wouldn't have ordered in the first place. Paint Scratch was recommended by a friend who restores cars. Easy ordering, fair price and fast shipping. The color match is great especially considering my car is a 2012. Will absolutely order from this company again. Reason I chose this business: Lexus collision repair and a local collision repair. Will use paint less dent removal and touch up chipped paint myself. Reason I chose this product: Spouse sideswiped passenger side of car while backing out of garage. Mostly plastic transfer from his wheel well trim but pressure creased and cracked the paint causing a bare strip 1/8 wide x 4" long below door handle. Scratches on door handle and a few small chips on both doors.

Simply the best custom mixed paint in spray cans

Used Paint Scratch metallic custom mixed spray cans paint on a hood panel with excellent coverage and texture over the surface. Metallic paint can be very unforgiving out of a spray can, sputtering pigmentation dots on the panel being sprayed and thus ruining the paint job. No such issues with Paint Scratch custom mixed metallic paint spray cans. Paint sprayed strong and evenly till the last drop of paint in the can. Shipping time was faster than expected. Reason I chose this business: Having tried other brands of custom mixed metallic paint with terrible results, sputtering pigmentation tint dots from the spray nozzle in spite of vigorously shaking of can prior to application and loss of propellant rendering the lower fifth of the can's paint useless, Paint Scratch custom mixed metallic paint sprays out beautifully and strong all the way to the last gram of paint in the can. Simply the best custom mixed paint in spray cans for automotive restoration. Thank you Paint Scratch.
