260606 - Dupont White Fleet Touch Up Paint

The Look

This shade was the industrial backbone of the road for over thirty years. Whether it coated a mid-sixties delivery truck or a late-nineties work van, this color represents the no-nonsense utility of the twentieth century. Since your vehicle has likely been through its fair share of highway miles and weather, you are dealing with a finish that prioritizes visibility and durability. Designed as a basecoat, this paint serves as the foundational layer that makes any workhorse look renewed.

Technical Details

This is a classic solid finish, which means you don't have to worry about metallic flakes settling in strange patterns or creating stripes. The high pigment count provides great coverage, but white paint is honest when it comes to cleanliness. It will highlight every bit of road tar or iron dust if the surface isn't prepared correctly. Because there is no pearl or flake to hide behind, you should focus on achieving a smooth, level surface to avoid a heavy or textured appearance.

Best Practices

Before you spray or dab Fleet Dupont White (check for code 260606), you need to shake it for 60 seconds. You find this code on the sticker inside your driver's side door jamb or tucked away in the glove box. To ensure a professional result in your garage, always test the color on the included card first. Keep the container moving at a steady pace to maintain a consistent flow from the nozzle or pen. Allow for plenty of drying time between thin layers to build up the depth without causing drips.
