COLOR CODEC9702 - Med Dark Pewter (Interior)Fleet Touch-Up Paint

The Look

Since your truck or van comes from that rugged 1966 to 2000 era, it likely features this heavy-duty metallic grey across the dashboard or door panels. This is the industrial standard for work vehicles-a shade that does not just look professional, but actively hides the scuffs and dust of a long career on the road. It is the kind of color that makes a high-mileage interior feel solid and grounded again.

Technical Details

Because this is a metallic finish, those tiny flakes are both your best friend and your biggest headache. They provide that classic depth, but if they settle unevenly, they create blotchy patches that look like dark shadows on your trim. You want to avoid letting the paint pool in any one spot, as that causes the metallic particles to clump and ruin the uniform look you are after. Since your vehicle has been around for a while, the original finish might have shifted slightly, but a well-mixed application will bridge that gap.

Best Practices

Before you spray or dab Fleet Med Dark Pewter (Interior) (check for code C9702), you need to shake it for 60 seconds to wake up those heavy metallic flakes. You can find your paint code on the silver sticker inside your glovebox or on the driver-side door jamb. Test the color on the included card to ensure the shade matches your specific level of interior wear. While applying, keep the container moving to ensure the flakes stay suspended in the liquid and do not clog the nozzle or brush. If you apply it in thick layers, the drying time will increase significantly, so work in thin, even passes for the cleanest result.
